Celebrations can brighten up dreary winters. We always have four of them: Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and the New Year.
In a couple of days, we’ll have Halloween with spooky, scary stuff and costumes of all kinds.
A few weeks later, we will have Thanksgiving, a time to thank God for his blessings throughout the year and throughout our lives.
About a month later, we celebrate Christmas, remembering God’s great love for us in sending his only son to become our savior.
A week after Christmas, we will celebrate the new year, some with parties and others with prayers.
No doubt I will have something to say about each of these. Meanwhile, they will not go unnoticed because people seem to look forward to occasions like these.
At the close of each Tuesday blog I will write about the presidents, in the order of their service.
