**********

There's something about this time of year that reignites our imagination for a better world... a better humanity.

Part of it is the tradition of family gatherings, gift giving, the lights and music. But there's something much deeper than that. Christmas if rooted in the story of God becoming human - the creative Word becoming flesh - moving into our world.

There's something in that act and the life of Jesus that followed that keeps inviting us to dream of a world that would reflect genuine justice, love, forgiveness and peace.

We would love to celebrate with you so we can all be inspired and invited into more than just the memory of Christmas, but the life Christmas makes possible.
