Uncle Cliff's storytime begins with Jesus' first coming from the gospel of John. He then shares a wonderful story 'A Blue Danube Christmas' by Robert J. Morgan.

Pastor Cliff calls us to this important meeting to help us using God's Word on growing and reaping to help us prepare the way for some intentional planning, planting, growing, and tending so we may have a harvest that is righteous and worthy to God and brings God's message of grace and love to others in how we are daily living our lives for Christ.

In this messy world, it can be tiring to face the challenges. But it is in this broken world where we need to feel the comfort of God. He gives this to us through the Holy Spirit AND in relationships with other believers. In order to build deep and lasting relationships, our church has small groups beginning in January. God loves us deeply and wants us to experience His comfort !
