It’s that time of year again when friends and family think about the Christmases of the past and plan for the coming holiday with their loved ones in mind.

Christmas is a time for remembering, a time to share the goodness of your heart with others, and for expressing with words and gifts what someone means to you. It is a chance to make wishes come true and to give something from your heart. It is a chance to give a message that will express love and caring to the ones we care about the most.

We want to wish all of our families a wonderful Christmas and to thank you all for the special gifts, but most importantly, sharing the special gift of your child with us.   A special hand written card or a gift that your child specifically has chosen for their teacher is always treasured.  It brings us such joy to watch your children embrace the love and joy of giving their heart and love to others.

Enjoy the cool weather, and have fun as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ this Friday.  For those who may not have a church home, St. Paul’s United Methodist Church will have a Christmas Eve Nativity Service at 5 pm.  All are welcome. All children are invited to join in recreating the nativity story. No advance practice required.
