"Wesołych Świąt Bożego Narodzenia!"

Dec. 2008
“ Wesołych Swiat Bozego Narodzenia!”
Merry Christmas!

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving season with having
three different times with English parties, one time with
missionary friends and another time with our church body
eating all the leftovers from the meal the day before and there
was enough for all (about 20 or so) to have very full plates!

We had a lot of time to reflect on the many good things we
do have and the blessings that God has given us. And now,
December 7th, our minds have begun to change thinking and
gear towards Christmas. Today, we started focusing on
Christmas, too, by making an advent chain using activities “to
do” for each day until Christmas Eve (the main day here - not
Christmas Day) to prepare our hearts for the season. Also,
today is the first time I listened to Christmas music while making
the dough for Christmas cut-out cookies we'll need for our
English Christmas party. So, for us, the season has “officially”
begun! Instead of us writing all the information down, the
enclosed paper gives you an idea of what a traditional Polish
Christmas looks like. We have had the privilege to be a part of
many of these traditions with our Polish friends. We’re looking
forward this year to celebrate together with our church family
and friends.

We wish you a very blessed holiday season. May God give
us opportunities to tell people we know about Christ and His
love this season!

Merry Christmas!,

Paul, Carlene, Andrew, Aaron and Alaina
