Dear Glen Mar,
I’m grateful for Journey to Bethlehem and all the ways our church has pulled together to adapt it so that people could see it. Overheard: A child raising his arms triumphantly as his car left, saying, “Jesus was a BABY!!” and many, many thank yous. So….thank you to Margaret and her very large team of helpers—let’s get ready to enjoy Weekend #2!

Dear Glen Mar,
If Advent is a season of waiting, then it feels like we are quite good at that by now (waiting for COVID numbers to level off, waiting for a vaccine). But waiting for the Advent of our Lord is not like waiting for something we are unsure of, or waiting for that which we do not know. Our Advent is waiting for Jesus, the Messiah, the Christ, the Savior. And this Jesus we are waiting for has already come.
