Merry Christmas One And All

For there is a STAR shone bright above the Heavens..... Let us remember that Jesus Christ is the light.
Let us remember every symbol of the season.

Tis the season of giving and getting so much in return.

I want to say how thankful I am for all my friends and family. To all of you that have enriched my life -I thank you a million times!

I look back at this year and hope for a better future, for us individually and most of all as a nation. We have come together this past season with many efforts to stand up as one in our beliefs; what better timing as we enter this season of turning out hearts to Christ.

I feel especially humbled as I see so many of us struggling, best friends, strangers, family and associates. I have one just one thing to ask is that we think of others this holiday season and remember our Savior and all that he did for us. He loves us more than we will ever know or even hope to comprehend. I hope for myself that I will carry a little of his grace with me this season and remember what this holiday is truly about- our Savior's birth. He came here specifically for YOU and for ME! There is no better gift in all creation. There is nothing comparable to the pain and anguish that he suffered for us out of pure love. Again, let us all turn our hearts to Christ.

We at the Swanger household wish you all a very Merry Christmas!!!
