Today’s Christmas event was our annual Christmas dinner with the staff, board, and ministry leaders at our church. Always a time with great food, good conversation, and especially amazing desserts. We all know each other, we all love each other, we all love our church, and we all love Christmas.

One of the things that I believe sets our church apart is how much our staff family loves being together and I think that spills over into our Christmas celebration with the rest of the church leadership. Our tradition is to gather and eat some fantastic food, sing several of our favorite Christmas carols, and then enjoy a holiday story. I love that it’s not a long party, but it is meaningful time spent together. I love that the Pastor doesn’t spend 30 minutes saying something that he can say in 10 minutes. He respects our time and how busy this season can be. That being said, we know that we can always look forward to a great and meaningful time together.

So thank you to our church staff and leadership team for making the third day of our Christmas celebration a wonderful evening with friends and loved ones. You have meant so much to us, especially this year, and we look forward to many Christmas celebrations to come!
