This Holiday Season

It is now December 23rd and so many of us are completing our last minute preparations for the holiday season. Whether it be time with friends or family, community events, or just preparing oneself for the coming busyness of this time of year.

I have some wishes for you all at this time:

-may we all recall the hope, peace, joy, and love that has been gifted to each of us this year in so many ways.

-may we all recognize that Holy Mystery, which is love, and all the places it has been present in our lives and communities this year.

-may the simple awe and wonder of children be captured in our hearts that we might see the simple pleasures of life found at this time of the year.

-may God continue to birth new life in your own lives, in our communities, and in our world throughout this season and the coming new year.

I wish you all the best at this holiday season and I pray that each of us feels, deep in our hearts, that we are deeply loved by a God who is love itself.

Peace and blessings,

Patrick Woodbeck

and everyone at Windsor Park United Church
