    Loved how the message of joy and the candle of joy and the organ music of joy wove together. All very wonderful. So happy to hear what the church was able to do to help those in need for Christmas. Mary
    I am really loving the pictures shared during the service. THanks to all, and Wendy and Michael, that was a beautiful anthem and loved hearing a “full” choir” on the hymns! Great to see Judy! -Jana
