Welcome back to Texas Loves Utah! It's snowing here in Herriman, Utah today and putting us all in the mood for the upcoming holiday season! When we meet new people here and tell them we're from Texas, they always comment on the fact that we probably love the sight of snow and have no idea what we're getting ourselves into as our first winter here approaches. And they could not be more right! We are enjoying being naive while we can and absolutely loving the white fluffy stuff!
We are all very much looking forward to Thanksgiving next week, which many of us will spend together as a church family. We are sure to have an interesting assortment of food as we all have somewhat varying ideas of what a real Thanksgiving feast should entail, but we're looking forward to spending it together.
We are also gearing up for our big community wide Christmas Eve service. Ben is still working to nail down a facility to open up for us that evening, so PLEASE be in prayer that he is able to schedule the perfect time and place. Our plan is to hand out 1,000 free Holiday CDs with our invite card attached all over the community. This service will be an amazing opportunity for us to celebrate the holiday with our new friends and neighbors, and also share the good news about what the birth of Jesus really means in our lives. Pray that our first Christmas here is one we never forget-that God brings the masses to celebrate His Son with us!
