Our family wishes you and yours a wonderful time of rejoicing as you celebrate the coming of our Savior.  Jesus, God’s Servant in Isaiah, was given by God “as a light to the Gentiles, that You should be my salvation to the ends of the earth”.  This fulfillment was proclaimed in Luke 2, when the Child Jesus was brought to the temple and taken up in the arms of Simeon, who Blessed God and proclaimed, “For my eyes have seen Your salvation, which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel” – Luke 2:30-32.  May your heart be glad and may you have the joy of sharing the news of the light of salvation in Jesus Christ with someone this season.

For His Kingdom,

Casey, Kelly and Micah
