Together, we give thanks!
Seasons Greetings,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! As we approach this sacred and joyous holiday season, my heart overflows with gratitude for the journey we’ve shared this year. Truly, the Lord has been our Keeper, our Provider, and our Strength.
This time of year reminds us of the miraculous gift of Jesus Christ, who came into the world to bring hope, peace, and salvation to all who would believe. In the midst of the celebrations, let us pause to reflect on the true reason for the season: God’s indescribable love for us.
Though this year may have brought its share of trials, know that every challenge is an opportunity to draw closer to the One who works all things together for our good. You may have faced storms that tested your faith, but remember that God never leaves us or forsakes us. His promises are true, and His love is unfailing.
As we gather with family and friends, let us also be a light to those around us. Share the love of Christ through acts of kindness, words of encouragement, and hearts of compassion. This season is not only a time of receiving but of giving—giving hope to the hopeless, joy to the sorrowful, and love to the lonely.
In Isaiah 9:6, we are reminded of the beautiful prophecy of Christ:
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
May this truth bring comfort and encouragement to your soul. No matter what lies ahead, we have a Savior who reigns with wisdom and peace, guiding us with His unfailing hand.
As we step into a new year, my prayer for you is that you walk boldly in faith, trusting God’s plan for your life. May His joy be your strength, His peace guard your heart, and His love fill your days.
From my family to yours, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. Let us rejoice, for the Savior is born, and through Him, we have abundant life.
In His Love,
Rev. Dr. Edward Lewis, Sr.
