Oh My It's Christmas WEEK!!

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

I hope your Christmas week brings you family, friends, and plenty or joy and festivities. May the peace of the season wash over you and keep you safe.

Here is hoping you eat lots of Christmas cookies and candy...AND NOT feel guilty about it at all!

This week is a little abbreviated. Many activities on Friday and Saturday were canceled due to the cold weather, icy roads, and snow.

Remember to send me updates. I need Volleyball news, school news and photos of Christmas lights! Remember news is news, no matter how small.

TrinityBanner Newsletter

It was a wonderful experience to be the pianist at the Trinity Lutheran Church Children's program on Christmas Eve. The church was overflowing and attendees even filled over six table in the fellowship hall where the service was viewed on a live video feed.

Listen to the weekly sermon anytime at Pastor Brent Kuhlman's Blog?
