Christmas Eve & Day

This Christmas we had surprisingly few people around at church. But those who were still here made sure to spend time together, to be family for one another. We were blessed to have a delicious dinner and breakfast prepared for us by some of the military folk (see Julie and Leah below, as well as Chris, Joe, and Samantha - am I forgetting anyone?) on Christmas Eve and Day. Thanks so much, it was such a blessing! Felt more like 'home' thanks to lovely people like you!

Christmas will never be the same in Okinawa as it is in Canada, but as long as we're celebrating for all the right reasons, Christmas will always be the most special day of the year! Thank you Jesus for redeeming us by Your blood!
