Editor, Gazette-Journal:

Christmas. The time when everybody feels a lift from all that troubles us, even those who aren’t believers. It appears that His love and Spirit finds a way to open the door of faith, even if only for a short time. I am very thankful for this, and hope that it will encourage more people to at least think about Him. We never know what will be that special moment, the moment when suddenly another heart is touched, and the interest in knowing Him grows, but it does happen and then there is much rejoicing!

May you know that joy of Christmas and all it brings, and thank Him for this Gift.
