“Christ the Lord is risen today – hallelujah.” He is alive and as the popular song of years ago says, “Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.”
Can you even imagine life without Christ? It is hard for you or me to imagine, but in the mission field in which we reside we find that not everyone we serve has been so fortunate. Many have never heard of God or His son Jesus much less the meaning of Easter.
I write briefly to let you know how much the Easter Cantata was appreciated and enjoyed this past Sunday. I have heard so many good comments about the Cantata from a wide range of people within the church.
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.
What a wonderful blessing it is to know the Christ of Christmas! While so many in the world move toward the statement “Happy Holidays”,
The Bible prophesied of the coming of our Savior this way in Isaiah 9:6: “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
It is with a sense of thanksgiving and gratitude that I write to you during the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons. As this letter is being written many wonderful things have been taking place in our church and for this our hearts are overjoyed.
I write briefly to let you know how much we appreciated the presentation of (Adult Christmas Cantata) this past week at First Christian Church.
I know that it takes great dedication to organize an event such as this, and you are to be commended for the fine job you and the Choir have done in sharing the Christmas message in song and drama. I am sure it served as great inspiration for many of the family and friends of the children, as well as the many people who assembled here at FCC for the presentation.
