CHRISTMAS SUNDAY, THE BEST!!!!!!

We had an awesome snow storm Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We decided we would go to church no matter what the weather, no matter who shows up. It was a spiritual feast. We had a member of the Branch Presidency to conduct the meeting(Doug), two Elders to bless and pass the sacrament( Elder Georges & Elder Shakespear), and 12 other members and 1 investigator. Christmas Hymns are always beautiful and invite the spirit. Thank heavens for a Piano that can play by it's self. Doug worked the piano while I led the singing. I had brought a few treasured Christmas stories that Doug and I shared and the Elders read the Christmas story from Luke 2 and all shared testimonies. Our investigator offered the closing prayer.

Our chapel has 4 huge picture windows, two on each side of the stand. It was an awesome experience singing and sharing while glancing every once in a while out the window watching the snow fall. The warmth from the building and the spirit warmed our souls and testified that we were where we needed to be this Memorable Christmas Sabbath Day.
