It feels funny to realize how close Christmas is. I've spent most of today working on the end of the year service for church, so I am know thinking past Christmas. That being said, I still have wrapping to do, but I have finished the shopping. Last night I snuck into Wal-Mart late and finished up some last minute buys including the stocking stuffers. It was nice to not be mobbed in the store. The secret is to go after 10pm.
So now I need to wrap Sarah's gifts and finish up all the last minute stuff for the end of the year.
I am excited for the Christmas Eve service. Should be a nice night as we celebrate the coming of the Light. Then I am looking forward to the end-of-the-year service on the 27th as we look back over the last year and see how God has worked and what He has done. Then the following week we will start looking ahead to 2010 and see what God has before us in this new year. It is great to be on this journey with such a great church family and work together as a team, not just a bunch of individuals.
Off to supper with the Churchill's tonight. I am so thankful for the friendship, fellowship, and support as we work together and share one another's lives.
