We all play a part in the incredible story of CHRISTmas! During this season of Advent we are going to look to the cast of characters God gathered together, touched, and transformed through the first Christmas.
The anticipation of the prophets, the joyful proclamation of the angels, the journey of the shepherds and wise men to honor Jesus, and how all of this fits in with how we prepare and celebrate for Christmas now.
