"The question that I hope each one of us will ponder this
Christmas is this: Where is it that you might give the gift of life to
another? It is one thing to simply mail packages or put presents under a
tree. It is something altogether different to enable someone else to be
whole or to thrive, or to reach some new potential, to know joy or
comfort or to have new life. There are gifts and then there are Holy
gifts. The difference between the two isn't a matter of lavishness or
expense or even effort. A Holy gift is simply on some deep level a
reflection, an extension of that gift given to the world in Bethlehem so
long ago. It is heart felt in the deepest sense. It's what Christmas is
truly all about. And what we can be about." For the full message, click the links below.
