I searched under Christmas, but found no formal exchange of greetings thread. So, let me start it off.
Peace and Joy to all of you at Christmas, and health, wealth and happiness in the New Year!
Merry CHRISTmas, JimRed. God Bless you and yours.
I just came back from New Jersey.
-good times, G.J.P.(Jr.)
I have asked the Mods to add the word Christmas to the title; I forgot it!
Merry Christmas, JimRed. May the spirit of the Christ Child be with us all. And to our military around the world, thank you for all you do. Without your courage and love of country and family we would be so much less than we are.
Merry Christmas to all.
And by the way I consider "happy holidays" as the PC equivilant of "Bah-Humbug"
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Peace on Earth, and Good Will Towards Men
from an atheist -- (we're not all bad)
A big Amen to that!
A special Merry Christmas all the DU lurkers and trolls.
Visualops, that's the best card ever! I GOTTA learn to do that stuff! Merry christmas!
Heehee, trying to remember all the folks who ping me :-)
Wishing everyone a blessed Christmas, and a happy and prosperous New Year.
Btw, my grandaughter Jenna arrived on December 22. 8lbs, 3oz...19 1/2 inches long. Early Christmas present :-)

Emmanuel
(by Clayton Frost)
Emmanuel, sweet child of Bethlehem,
Almighty God who choose with man to dwell
Who came to earth to ransom fallen men,
And died the message of Gods love to tell.
His birth was in a dirty stable stall.
The cattle’s manger was his only bed.
The King of Glory, Master over all,
Asleep where all the animals were fed.
The shepherds came and offered him their praise,
Who heard the angels’ wondrous voices sing.
The wise men tracked the star for many days,
And many precious gifts to him did bring.
Messiah, God with us, Emmanuel,
Forever in our hearts may Jesus dwell
Happy Holy-days!
"Merry Christx & Have a Blessed New Year!
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Now I must go out before the supermarket closes, (4 days this year) to get those last minute things I have forgotten in 5 hours of shopping today!
Amen to Happy Holy-Days!
The very Merriest of Christmases to you and yours and a blessed, safe, healthy and happy New Year.
Lots of Love and Hugs to you and yours......

We can eithe rknow the Truth and be set free--or we can
turn from the Truth and choose bondage.Our Savior is Christ
not Allah,Mohammed, nor any man. What an awesome AWESOME
Story.
