1 Beaverdam UMC & Rouzie s Chapel UMC: Two Amazing Churches, One Awesome God DECEMBER 017 / JANUARY 018 Issue 10 Dear Church Family, The angel said to the shepherds, Don t be afraid. I m here to announce a great and joyful event that is meant for everybody worldwide: A Savior has just been born in David s town, a Savior who is Messiah and Master. This is what you re to look for: a baby wrapped in a blanket and lying in a manger. (Luke : 10-1 The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language) Talk about an understatement! A great and joyful event hardly does justice to the God of the universe, the Only True God coming to be in our midst, to live among us. But this time of year, words often seem inadequate to fully express all that we experience and share together. Yet, even though they are often inadequate, we still want to express the wonder and the awe and so we use words to do that. During Advent, the season of watching and waiting, we will focus our attention on small words. Words that are on the Christmas list of every person in the world in one way or another hope, peace, joy and love. The world as a whole and us as individuals who make up our world long for the hope, the peace, the joy and the love that was wrapped in a blanket and lying in a manger. So this Advent, we watch and wait together to receive every one of our wishes as we unwrap the One who came, lived among us and offered us Himself. Words are inadequate but we use them anyhow to say, Thanks be to God for His Gift, precious beyond telling His indescribable, inexpressible, free Gift! ( Corinthians 9:1 The Amplified Bible) With transforming Christmas hope, Claudia Christmas Eve Candlelight Communion Service Sunday, Dec. th 6:00 p.m. Rouzie s Chapel United Methodist Church There will also be worship services at 9: a.m. at Rouzie s Chapel and at 11:00 a.m. at Beaverdam UMC that morning. Merry Christmas! As 017 draws to a close we thank you for being such an amazing and supportive Body of Christ for us. It is our joy to be in ministry together with you and we look forward to the things that Jesus will do through us all in 018. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Scott, Claudia & Emily Stallings Contacting Pastor Stallings: Church: Home: beaverdamumc@embarqmail.com Cell:

5 What does Christmas mean to me? It means that God so loved me That He sent His only Son So that I could be set free. To be set free From the sins of the world, And walk in His pathway Gladly, His banner to unfurl. It means joy and peace To all who follow after Him, And shun worldly pleasures That would lead one into sin. The world knows Him as Jesus; He is the bright and morning Star, Who brings sunlight into darkness, Leading wise men from afar. What does Christmas mean to me? It means that when this life is done I have a home in heaven, Provided by God s only Son. Christmas, by Lottie Shular Submitted by Nancy Parke Me: God, can I ask You a question? God: Sure. Me: Promise You won t get mad? God: I promise. Me: Why did You let so much stuff happen to me today? God: What do you mean? Me: Well, I woke up late this morning. God: Yes. Me: My car took forever to start. God: Okay. Me: At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait. God: Hummmm. Me: On the way home, my phone DIED, just as I picked up a call. God: All right. Me: And to top it all off, when I got home --I just wanted to soak my feet in my new foot massager and relax. But, it wouldn t work!! Nothing went right today! Why did You do that? God: Let me see, the death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of My Angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that. Me (humble): Oh! God: I didn t let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that would have hit you if you were on the road. Me (ashamed): Okay. God: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling you was going to give false witness about what you said on that call, I didn t even let you talk to them, so you could be covered. Me (softly): I see God. God: Oh and that foot massager. It had a shortage that was going to knock out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn t think that you wanted to be in the dark. Me: I m sorry, God. God: Don t be sorry, just learn to Trust Me in All things, the Good and the bad. Me: I will trust You. God: And don t doubt that My plan for your day is Always Better than your plan. Me: I won t God. And let me just tell you God, Thank You for Everything today. God: You re welcome my child. It was just another day being your God and I Love looking after My Children...
