As we move through this season of Advent, toward Christmas Day and then into a New Year, Janice and I want to take this opportunity to wish you a blessed Christmas and a joy-filled New Year.
We are grateful to be part of the church family here at Valley and wish to express our sincere thanks for the support and encouragement you have been to us, and to our family. Thank you for the many ways you have extended grace and kindness to us throughout 2012.
As I think about Valley, our people and its future, my thoughts continually cycle back to three truths that I pray God will impress upon each of our hearts.
1 – Celebrate the goodness of God
They will celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness.
(Psalm 145:7)
2 – Faithfully serve our God and others
Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
(1 Corinthians 15:58)
3 – Finish Well to the honor and glory of our God
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
(2 Timothy 4:7)
To all our friends at Valley: MERRY CHRISTMAS!
