December 24, 2012 The Rev Kate Wesch preaching
Merry Christmas! Tonight, at this darkest time of year, we pierce the night with millions of pinpoints of light – with candles in church and on table where families gather, with light on our Christmas trees and front porches, and lawns lit up in colorful array. We wrap ourselves in the darkness like a blanket and gaze steadily out at the light on the horizon, knowing that spring must come. Christmas is about that hope, the longing for light.
