Members and Friends of Austin Mennonite Church I pray that as Advent ushers us into the celebration of Christmas, you may feel the warmth and radiance of God's companionship as you journey in faith toward the full glory of God's majesty. We will have opportunity this Friday evening at 7 to share in a Christmas Eve Candlelight Service together - a time to hear again the circumstances associated with the birth of Jesus and a time to sing carols which express our joy for the gift of God come to dwell among us. Let the wonder and magnificence of this testimony embrace you and refresh your spirit as we renew our determination to follow where God is leading us. Please continue to keep close to your hearts and in your spirits those who are ill among us and those who are traveling during these holidays. For the glory of God we pray. May it go well with you. Sincerely, Garland Robertson ...always hold firmly to the thought that each one of us can do something to bring some portion of misery to an end
