From the Pastor’s desk

I must confess I’m always unimpressed by the Statements of Faith that churches post on their sites.

In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock at night. And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood near them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.
