Merry Christmas!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
A word, or two, to the Youngest Disciples. 


"Little Children you are from God. 
Beloved let us love one another for love is from God."

Christmas Eve Service

Pastor Ken's wingspan covers the listeners during the children's sermon.

Sweet faces aglow in the candlelit service.

'twas the Sunday before Christmas...


 and all through the church, little flames were burning brightly in wreaths, minds and hearts...






Boys made noises

 

 Jackson helped the light to shine brightly.



 Pastor Ken told of nicknames for Jesus, such as "Prince of Peace"  "Light of the World".

While the waffle lights were lit...


The girls and I played in the nursery during the 87th Annual Waffle Shop. No waffles here, just animal cookies, raisins and smiles.
