A Christmas Concert called GLORIA! It was great! There were some unexpected faces in the crowd such as my foreman. His family are all believers but he is not. I think he liked it. We also had a dinner afterwords for Christmas. It was wonderful to be there. Thank you for this positive question. May the LORD bless you.

I'm a Jehovah's Witness and this morning I attended my meeting. The 45 minute speach was about how God, even though we are all sinners, he still loves us equally.
The Witnesses conduct meetings there weekly. One meeting is a public lecture on a subject of current interest, followed by a study of some Biblical theme or prophecy, using the Watchtower magazine as source material. Another meeting is a school for training Witnesses to be better proclaimers of the good news, followed by a part devoted to discussing the witnessing work in the local territory. Also, once a week Witnesses assemble in private homes, in small groups, for Bible studies.
All these meetings are open to the public. No collections are ever taken. Such meetings are beneficial for all. The Bible says: "We ought to see how each of us may best arouse others to love and active goodness, not staying away from our meetings, as some do, but rather encouraging one another, all the more because you see the Day drawing near." Private study and research are necessary, but meeting with others is stimulating: "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens the wits of another."—Hebrews 10:24, 25;

Today was the focus on family day at church. Our kids of next group put on a play about a donkey that feels he isnt good enough to be a donkey. However in the end, Jospeh comes and buys the meek donkey and this donkey learns that he is going to carry the baby Jesus. The TOFOG put on their play about how the most important thing of the season,. Jesus, cant be bought in a store.

I went to Mass, like I do every Sunday, and joined in prayer and worship of Jesus Christ and God the Father Almighty in heaven; Heaven touched down on earth (literally). I received the Holy Eucharist, and again, for that hour, nothing of this earth mattered. I was in the total peace and joy of heaven.
God bless.

Our sermon was on the Christmas spirit and making our selves better. Yes even when those things are repeated we still get a lift out of them. It was a great day in all.

Jesus Christ became physically present on the altar. He approached his father in heaven on my behalf, with all my prayers and petitions, he came to me and dined with me, and dropped off some beautiful gifts.
It was a nice Mass.

the same basic routine as last Sunday. nothing really new except there were others who finally found out a Lady can do as good a job of preaching a sermon as a man can. they finally realize that it is ability not gender which makes a good minister. feel as though I had a victory of sorts.
