“For unto us a child is born”
(Isaiah 9:6)
This is such a special time of year as we celebrate the birth of our Savior. As I think about our world and people I know who are struggling in life, it is more important than ever to remember that God sent Jesus into the world to show us how to hold onto love and hope. In the midst of troubling news in the media, personal crises we encounter, and poverty and hunger on our island, we are reminded at Christmas that there is always a place for love and hope. Just as Jesus arrived during a troubling time and showed everyone new possibilities and new ways of being in the world, we too are able to do the same!
As we gather on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, may we all feel God’s love and hope for the world; and may we commit ourselves to being part of God’s dream for us all! I invite you to join us for our worship services on Sunday morning, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day as we celebrate God’s loving presence which came to us as an infant in Bethlehem…and which continues to come to us in unexpected and surprising ways!
Aloha nui!
