In some ways this past year was like so many others. I'm still working at Moody and Lucinda's still working at the Christian Working Woman. Once again she went on a teaching ministry trip to Kenya and Uganda last summer. However, there were some things that were different this year.
Last Christmas Lucinda, Gabe and I went to France to spend the holidays with Shaelagh, Jeremiah and Annalise. That was great fun. Annalise is a wonderfully precocious child and this, together with the wonder of Christmas, led to many delightful and silly interactions with her.
This year, not only are Shaelagh, Jeremiah and Annalise here on a 5 month home assignment, but they've been joined by Miriam Rosalie who was born November 11. It will be super to have them, as well as Gabe, here for Christmas. They plan to return to their mission work in France at the end of January.

As we remember Jesus' coming to earth during this Christmas season, may you know the peace and goodwill that only Jesus can give.
