Dear Friends,
Often this time of year I think "Are people really experiencing the joy the angels told us about on that first Christmas?" 

I hope you'll share the joy of this season with your friends, but before you can do that, you much first prepare your own heart. Make sure you spend time with the Lord to rejuvenate your spirit.  Review the Christmas story in Luke 2 and start memorizing scriptures that have impacted your life.  That way, when the right comes to share the gospel with your friends, you’ll be ready.
           
There are so many people who are lonely this time of year. Think of your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and church members and consider the list on the right of this page.  What activity would be the best way to reach out to them?  Pray about the best way to share the gospel with a friend and then DO IT!  Share the true reason for joy this Christmas
           

Merry Christmas!
In Christ,

Pat and Luis Palau
