A quote from Rev. Jim's Christmas Eve prayer: "We pray for the welfare of the world. Upon all who seek it, grant wisdom and courage, patience and perseverance. Let the angel's song of good will ring down upon your earth, and be the song of the nations. Especially this Christmas Eve we pray for all homes in every nation, for every mother who cradles her infant, for any child who is hungry or unwanted, for the innocent upon whom the wars of the world fall. We pray for them. Enlarge our sympathies, and enable us through the work of the church to carry the ministries of Christ to the end of the earth..."
NAME CHANGE: Peace, Rev. Darryl
