Christmas Eve at Christ Church

We've been planning go to Ed's brother's home for Christmas. Kay's still recovering from her back surgery and all the complications following it. We feel that going up just for the day will be less stress on her.

One advantage in going for a one day trip is that we could attend the Christmas Eve service at our church here in Ft. Lauderdale. The 7:00 p.m. service seemed the best choice for us of the five services held.

As always, the reverence, inspiration, and beauty were just overwhelming. Last evening, it seemed especially sacred and our hearts were lifted as we participated in Christ's birthday celebration.

There are about 80 people in the choir and they sing like angels. Last night they also had a string quartet playing.Merry Christmas to you, our cherished family and friends. We love you and miss you.

We missed you at Christmas also! What type of Christmas Eve service did you attend? We had a cantata ("The Gift Goes On")followed by a brief candlelight service. Emma sang a solo that sounded wonderful even though she'd had a head cold and sore throat.
