Christmas Church Letter – Evangelistic (Christ First)

Dear Church Family,

Luke 2:12 – This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” 16 – So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.

In all of the activities and events of this Christmas season, the verses above give us a sense of the very first Christmas morning. A time of excitement, yet serenity, a time of anticipation, the realization of the most blessed Gift that could ever come to humanity, Jesus Christ, the Son of God!

We are living in a day when it seems that the word “Christmas” is constantly under attack as we as Christians are encouraged to feel somehow “guilty” when it comes to this particular time.  Well, let me say in as loud a “voice” as I can type… “I'M NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL. ”  Romans 1:16 – For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Special Christmas Offering Letter (1)

Warm Christian Greetings! John 1:14 says: And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

We do not need to be “shy” or even “politically correct” about it! He has done so much for us, and while we could never repay Him, we do offer our lives as living sacrifices to be used for His glory. (Romans 12:1)

What a wonderful blessing it is to know the Christ of Christmas! While so many in the world move toward the statement “Happy Holidays”, we as Christians know that the Christmas Season is truly the time we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Christmas Letter 2020 Hope Theme (Covid)

The year 2020 will soon be in our past, and if you're like me, it can't come a moment too soon! This year has been months of difficulty on so many levels, for so many people. With the effects of a Global Pandemic still taking place, it seems there are reasons for Hope. While there are varied opinions about a vaccine and what hope it provides, there can be no doubt, many are believing for the best.

I want to take this opportunity to remind you once again of the fact that in Christ “hope came down” to dwell among us over 2,000 years ago. He continues to dwell here by the power of the Holy Spirit and, through His death and resurrection, provided the perfect “vaccine” for humanity's sin problem!

Christmas Church Letter 2020

Christmas Greetings!

What a year it has been, and it's not even over yet!

If you are like me at all, there are times we look back over this past year in wonder and amazement. It often leaves me shaking my head a bit and even saying out loud from time to time, “I never saw that coming”!

From the Global Pandemic at the beginning of the year continuing through even now, as well as racial and political tensions, can there be any doubt that we need God more now than ever before?

One thought seems to help me balance out many things we see now, and it is this; “Not one time has God ever stated how surprised He has been by all this”!

Pastor’s Christmas Letter – Prepare the Way Theme

Pastor's Christmas Letter for (YEAR)

Christmas Greetings!

As the Christmas Season is upon us once again, I've been thinking about the incredible opportunity we have as Christians.

The Bible tells us the story of John the Baptist, whose primary purpose of ministry was to be the one who would prepare the way for the Messiah. This was so the Messiah would have an entry point into the lives of the people. Yet, before He could come into the hearts of the people, an important thing needed to take place in their hearts, and it's called “repentance.”
