Joy

Tis the season for Joy, "Joy to the World" always comes to mind when I think of Christmas and the precious gift of Jesus.   At our house we try to focus on Jesus at Christmas but you can't help get excited when you see little ones at Christmas.   We had a great experience last night to kick off our season of celebration at our church.   Hannah and John Henry participated in the Metro North Dance Christmas Program.  It was beautiful and all the dancers were outstanding.    Over the summer our youth group had the opportunity to meet each week before their youth meeting to learn dancing, have dinner, and a devotion.   They learned the waltz and the jitterbug.   Carole, our pastor's wife and Metro Dance Director, included the youth in the dance companies' Christmas fund raiser.   I've included a couple of pictures of Hannah and John Henry with their partners.   It was a great way to start our celebration focusing on God's precious gift of Jesus.
