“Then she gave birth to her firstborn Son, and she wrapped Him snugly in cloth and laid Him in a feeding trough- because there was no room for them at the inn.” (Luke 2:7)

LAST SUNDAYS MUSIC

I know that if you could have seen my feet that they had to be about two feet off the ground while you were singing Sunday. I am so proud of the work that you have been doing each week this past year. The quality and energy that you bring each week to your singing is just amazing. Your committment to this ministry is much appreciated. It seems that every week is a special occassion, because we put forth our best effort every week, and then when God puts forth that extra measure of blessing, it turns into something that we all know couldn’t come from our own efforts, but from God himself. You are really becoming great worship leaders. Thank you for your work, Praise the Lord for the privilage of serving him, all the glory goes to God. Now, on to Christmas!!!!!

CHRISTMAS PARADE

You were well represented as a church and choir at the Christmas parade. The float was outstanding and really was focused on God, Our singers did a fantastic job and were such good sports, being willing to do anything. Even at the tree lighting ceremony our church and choir was represented. Don Smith sang O Holy Night, and Jim Blomberg and Howard Henson along with Don Smith sang in the Sullivan Community Choir. Thank you Darrell McGowen for your vision for the float and to all the people who worked on it. Thank you, Evette Eickelmann, Christy Jones, Linda Magruder, Cindy Muschany, and Bradley Perry for singing so beautifully, and for putting up with all the little suprises we had all through the evening, God was truly Glorified.
