The Title of the Worship Service was ‘Great Joy’ and was from the passage of the magi from Matthew chapter 2. Msn Caleb Han delivered the powerful message of complete and satisfying joy that has been made available to us by Jesus Christ. Jesus is our King of Kings and our Priest before the Father on our behalf. He is the Lamb of God who suffered on the Cross for our sins. So when we come and offer our gifts to Jesus, we experience no loss, but great gain—great joy. We live as magi seeking to worship the Christ and our hope is fulfilled by God’s help and guidance.

I praise God that I was able to participate in the skit. Our human resources and time resources are quite limited. But we depended on God and when beyond our own human strength. We borrowed each other’s strength. One had an idea, the other typed it out. A third worked as director and stitched up the loose ends. Sheep helped. Vladimir, an art student, painted a beautiful picture of Mary and Charles and Ruth filled in for those who did not show up. In short, our skit was a work of the Holy Spirit in the form of co-working.

The program included lots of music which Little Sarah, Petra, Joanna and Ruth performed flawlessly. After the program we had a feast of various foods. So we had lots of present to exchange.

I thank God that he blessed our co-working and pure worship. I thank God for the Sisters who perform such a vital role in the ministry. I thank God for the participation of our Children. Mostly I thank God who gives the irrevocable gift of life and great joy through Jesus.
