Advent & Christmas

Joy to the world! Peace on Earth! Hark, the Herald Angels Sing!

At this time of the year -- from Advent through Epiphany -- the world sings out with messages of hope, love, joy and peace. As we await the birth of the Christ Child, let us take time to share love to those around us, a reminder of the greatest gift, when Love came down.
