    Dec 25 2021

    Merry Christmas! Joyeux Noël!
    Jesus has come, our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace! God would do absolutely anything and everything just to be close to us. Jesus came as a little baby because God wanted to be with us, by being just like us. What about us? How can we open our doors and be good company to those in need? What can we do for people who may not even know? The people that God loves? All the people?
    We meditate on love and welcome and hear your lovely Christmas greetings in many languages!

  • Advent: Great Joy
    Dec 19 2021

    In the fields that dark night, angels appeared and brought something important, “good news that will cause great joy for all the people”. News of the kind of joy that brightens the darkest night and fills the hearts of everyone around. Pure joy. What do you think that kind of joy might look like? We hear your thoughts, a poem and listen to what the Bible has to say about where to find joy.
