Dear friend,
Today is officially the last day of the Christmas season, so 12 drummers are drumming. Of course, the partridge in the pear tree, which is Christ Jesus, is still at the center of it all.
I hope your observance of Christmas was meaningful and joyful and helpful. And I pray that it has led you to an expectant start to the new year. Because of events in Bethlehem 2000 years ago, events at Bethlehem today have purpose and resonance and value in God’s world.
Some of those events this week to keep us moving forward:
Wednesday afternoon—Christmas un-decorating
Wednesday 5pm—Community table fellowship
Wednesday 6pm—New Bible study begins on First Peter
Thursday Noon—Lunch Bunch returns
May God bless us, everyone, in 2026!
In Christ,
Pastor Heckmann
