This has been an interesting couple of days, hasn't it. The Hall's lost power sometime during the Sunday morning church service. As of Monday night... it is still out. We have been watching the snow come down. We have a great sleding hill out behind our house. It has received much use in the last 24 hours.
I don't know if this weather will clear up before Wednesday's Christmas Eve services. We may have to cancel those... any notices will be on the front page of the church's website. You can check there for more info.
We had a great time together Sunday morning. We learned that Jesus probably wasn't born on Christmas day and he wasn't born on 1 AD. We also learned why that long list of names at the beginning of the book of Matthew is there. If you missed it... you'll have to ask someone who was there. I've also posted some web links that help answer some of these questions.
On what day was Jesus born??? - http://www.aloha.net/~mikesch/sukkoth.htm
In what year was Jesus born??? - http://www.aloha.net/~mikesch/year.htm

Check some of these links out and then read the Bible verses to double check everything.
