Dear Church Family,
I pray that you are all doing well! I finally got my tree up after finding out half of my lights didn’t work! I had plans all day on Saturday with some friends going to a craft show. When I got home my husband surprised me by getting new lights and putting them on the tree! I was very thankful!
