receives anew the wondrous gift,
the Christ.

Love has a place. Our hearts.
Love has a story.

put man's best dreams

How many observe
Christ's birthday!
How few, his precepts!

Holidays than

Best of all, Christmas means a spirit
of love, a time when the love of God
and love of our fellow men should
prevail over all hatred and
bitterness, a time when our
thoughts and deeds and the spirit of
our lives manifest the presence of
God.
-George F. McDougall
~~~~~~
Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, Love divine;
Love was born at Christmas;
Star and angels gave the sign.

JOY
Somehow, not only for Christmas,
but all the long year through,
The joy that you give to others,
Is the joy that comes back to you.
-John Greenleaf Whittier
~~~~~~
God sent a star to light the night for
The Way, The Truth, The Life--His Son.
He sent the Light of Life to prove His
heart
so we would invite His Son into our
own.
God has given us all the light we'll
ever
need to find peace on earth,
goodwill to men.
-Pamela F.Dowd
