Christmas Sunday

We had a wonderful day on Sunday. It was our Christmas celebration Sunday. We had hoped for more to attend, but we trust the Lord for the outcome. James, David and Mikky quoted Luke 2:11 and received their certifications for completing their scripture memory for this quarter. Mikky played a gaiter special. Our family sang then James and David played piano specials and preformed a puppet play about the true meaning of Christmas. Jeff preached a wonderful message about the reason for Christ's birth.

The Christmas breakfast in English for our students was so much fun. Nine of our students were able to come. We had a great breakfast, played mad libs and shared the true meaning of Christmas with them . Serveral of our student now attend our Czech services. We encourage the students to come to our English service (also to our Czech services).

Debra hosted a ladies tea on the 22nd of December. Seven ladies came for tea, from our church and from the neighborhood. The ladies had a great time as they make a snowman craft, shared cookies and talked about what Christmas meant to them.

Christmas tradition overshallows the true meaning of Christmas here leaving the Czechs with many questions. Pray that the Lord will give us many opportunties to share with others Why our Christmas and New Years looked so different from theirs.
