Christmas

    

Jesus Christ is born!

    We had a very eventful Christmas this year. We had 2 ice storms last, last Friday and Saturday, which led to a power outage. It only lasted one day for us, but we were unable to go to church on Sunday and also canceled the Christmas Program, because the church had no power. On Christmas Eve, we were unable to go to our grandparent's house, since they had no power (it actually went on that evening). On Christmas, we finally were able to go to church, and the Christmas Program was planned for second Christmas Day. Unfortunately for me, I became sick and couldn't participate. What a disappointment! But the program went on and went well, too, from what I heard. The ice storm did leave a beautiful landscape. :)

 

Advent

Well, it is the beginning of the church year again, and we are thinking, once again, of the 2nd coming of Jesus - that we must be ready and let Him enter into our hearts.

For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

But of the day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

Watch, therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Therefore, be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
Matthew 24:27, 36, 42, 44

     I am sorry that I have no pictures to put on (except from Ottawa). It tends to be a bit difficult putting them on the computer, sometimes.
