Our District Superintendent Amy Coles included this in her Christmas greeting. It is one of my favorite poems. Hope you enjoy it. And may this be our prayer as we begin the new year . . . .
“WHEN the song of the angels is stilled,
WHEN the star in the sky is gone,
WHEN the kings and princes are home,
WHEN the shepherds are back with their flock,
the work of Christmas begins:
TO FIND the lost
TO HEAL the broken
TO FEED the hungry
TO RELEASE the prisoner
TO REBUILD the nations
TO BRING PEACE among brothers and sisters
TO MAKE MUSIC in the heart.”
Howard Thurman
