Dear Friends,
Many years ago, the world received a small gift. A small gift, yet a gift so precious that it can only be measured by the magnitude of the sacrifice the giver made. This small gift went on to give us an even greater gift - one we didn't ask for, one we don't deserve and certainly one that doesn't fit under our Christmas tree. A small gift, Uhh?
I know each of you has a small gift to give to someone today. It might be a smile, a hug, a knowing nod, a gentle touch, a quiet moment or a single word of encouragement. Whatever your heart gives as a small sacrifice today will be remembered for years to come. A small gift - hallelujah!
Merry Christmas,
Dave

Merry Christmas Mary
Dear Friends,
I saw this note this morning and it made me think of you.
"Christmas, for Mary, was the challenge of understanding what the favor of God is truly all about. Mary was about to learn that being highly favored by God does not mean a life of unbroken happiness nor does it promise that all of your dreams will come true. There is a tremendous price to be paid by those who are highly favored by God; favor means, simply, that God is willing to use you."
I see each of you as "highly favored by God" and that He does, indeed, willingly use you. You pay that tremendous price each and every day as you touch the lives around you. However, you bring more than just health care, you bring hope, joy and love. Your unselfish giving is a True Gift!
Merry Christmas to you and your families and I pray that you have a blessed and wonderful season filled with love and joy.
In Him,
Dave
