On this Christmas morning, I want to send greetings to anyone 'logging on'. I don't think I have ever been on-line before on Christmas Day, so this is another first, for me.
It is still dark in Walsall, UK, and the weather forecaste for today is rain - no 'White Christmas' for us, this year. In fact on Sunday I learnt that Birmingham has only had nine 'white christmases' since 1945. However, this was sunrise two days ago, on a frosty morning:
Amid all the festivities, family gatherings, food and friendship, it is good to remind ourselves that this is the day set aside to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, who came as the gift of a baby and 33 years later gave mankind to the greatest gift of all - His life!
On Sunday the children at our church in Birmingham presented a informal tableau of the Nativity story.
