The Federated Church in 1945.Christmas has arrived. And it’s quite late; for me. We went to the midnight services last night and so we weren’t in bed till almost 1 this morning. The service was very good, a real celebration of His birth. An odd thing though…there were very few “old” people there. There were lots of strangers’ present, young strangers, and that was a good thing! There had been an earlier service, at 7, and that is probably where the older members had been. We have always enjoyed the late service with a candle light processional and so we will probably try to stay awake for it next year as well. We may have to take a nap, but there is nothing wrong with that.
Now that Christmas has arrived, perhaps we can declare the War on Christmas to be over…Christ won, at midnight last night, as He always does and always will. And those that were so eager to defend Him can go back to doing whatever it is they were doing before they became convinced that Christ was under attack and needed help.
We will be back in church later this morning and then we are going to Chico to celebrate with our family...Good times!
