Hello Grace Church Family and Friends,

MERRY CHRISTMAS! Just a friendly REMINDER! Tomorrow Evening at 6:00 PM is the Grace Church Choir and Players Christmas Musical entitled “THEN JESUS CAME.” Please plan on attending and joining us afterwards for fellowship and food in the Fellowship Hall. PLEASE BRING FINGER FOOD TO SHARE. Beverages will be provided by the church.

My Christmas message in the morning will focus on the genealogy of our Lord Jesus found in Matthew 1:1-17. Sometimes we skip the chapters and verses that include genealogies. For sure, it is hard to pronounce the names. Yet, we can be certain that the Lord includes them in His Word for a reason. Tomorrow we will take a look and see what the Lord is saying to us through Matthew, the tax collector. Please join us and bring someone with you.

I trust you’ve had a great week. Join me and pray for our time of worship together. As you pray consider those you would like to join you at church; then give them a call/a text/an email and invite them to join you! The Lord will honor your invitation. The fact is this; people need the Lord more than they know. Love them to Jesus! You won’t regret it, and neither will they. Also, pray for everyone involved in “Then Jesus Came.” They want to be at their best for the Lord and for the Gospel.

Matthew 1:22-23 says (KJV) Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,²³ Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

Let us magnify the Lord together,

Mike and Cheryl <><
