Reflecting on the year 2023 this Christmas we find ourselves amazed at the God-given potential entrusted to us to be God-bears and like Mary, able not by words of willingness alone, but by full embodiment and real engagement in the lives of those around us.
Be it with family, friends, neighbors, fellow participants in our faith community, or perfect strangers, making the love of God known through meaningful engagement in their lives is the best Christmas gift we will ever have to offer.
Social media, FaceTime, and Zoom have been wonderful tools for staying in touch with others in the ups and downs throughout the year, but it’s been the opportunities we’ve had in life and ministry to be in direct, personal and trusted relationships that has been the best Christmas gift we could ask for.
Thank you for staying in touch and supporting Pioneer’s life and ministry that we all may be bearers of Good News this Christmas and throughout the New Year!
