Sunday morning at Peace we will read the
story of the angels and shepherds coming to see the glory of
God. Apart from the love that came down, where would we
be? We’d be lost in the grief that surrounds us, but because
of the Incarnation we know a love that gives us hope, peace, and joy! 8:30 or 11:00,
we hope to see you!
Thank you all for your involvement at Peace over the last year, as we settled in our new home. Thank you for your gifts, for your labors of love, and for your vision for all Christ can do among us.
On Christmas Eve there will be readings, candles, communion, and special music at all three services – just slight variations in the music groups for each service at 5:00, 7:00, and 9:00. Invite someone and by all means, pay attention to warmly welcome anyone you do not recognize. Help others find a seat on Christmas Eve –slide down, make room in the Inn, so to speak, and encourage them to come back in the new year. The love of Christ propels us to continue to be kindest, the friendliest, and the most genuinely caring and interested. That’s how we build peace and Peace!
Our Christmas Eve Lessons and Carols is patterned after the beautiful Festival of Lessons and Carols from Kings College Chapel of Cambridge, which is broadcast around the world on public radio on Christmas Eve at 10:00 am EST. To learn more go to http://www.kings.cam.ac.uk/events/chapel-services/nine-lessons.html
Last but not least, those of you who are blessed to be over seventy, the President just signed the U.S. House and Senate extension of the IRA Charitable Rollover. You can transfer as much as $100,000 from an IRA directly to a charity without tax penalty. We would be happy to be your charity of choice! Send to the Peace Building Fund 12705 State Road 64, Lakewood Ranch, 34212!
Peace and good will to all,
Elizabeth
