Blessed Christmas to You

Posted by under Christmas 2011 | Permalink | | Leave A Comment | No Comments

Christ, The Word, entered into human history some 2011-or-so years ago. The date itself isn’t important, December 25, April something, or whatever. This event is worth celebrating 365.25 days a year.

Today and tomorrow, this placeis playing some extraordinary Christmas music. Not the “Santana got run over by a reindeer” type of music. At the moment, they are playing:

The James Chorale, Chicago (St. James Lutheran Church)
Noel
Sing ye Choirs Exultant: Music of Carl Schalk
I’m really enjoying it.
Tomorrow, I only have church planned. We did the family Christmas-type-stuff today, and one of my nieces and nephews will show up Monday. That allows freedom for Mother and I to simply focus on Christ.
What could be a better celebration than that?

And Another Gift

NT

Happy December 16, 2011!

Wow! Things are moving quickly to the end of the year. Tomorrow is the dress rehearsal for the children’s Christmas program at Zion, Sunday is the presentation of the program.

See that little “NT” at the top of the post? Clicking it will allow you to download a “Read through the New Testament in 2012″ Schedule that I enjoyed putting together. I figured that it would be the perfect “bookend” to go with his schedule to read through the Old Testament that I posted a couple of days ago.

Supper is calling, so I need to run. Greetings to you at this festive time! Lisa

I Just Created a Gift for You

Happy Monday!

I have been coughing like crazy today. Yesterday, I was okay – but I am way more than making up for it today. I even feel exhausted.

That didn’t stop my attempt at creativity. I am trying to put together some handmade and downloadable gifts for you. Here is the first – a "Read through the Old Testament in 2012" Schedule. It has a couple of mildly unique features. For starters, it is not tied to any particular version of the Bible. Try to pick a good one! (And yes, I can discuss that with you – do not expect me to recommend some of the wildly popular "interpretations of interpretations of interpretations," but I am not a "King James only" girl.)

I also only scheduled readings for four days a week. I know my friends very well – we need built-in "catch up" days!

Let me know what you think!
