Christmas Eve Singing

Christmas Eve singing started a long time ago with angels singing to shepherds. We try to carry on that tradition. Somehow, after dinner, a number of us found ourselves in the living room belting out some of the familiar tunes of the season. That was in preparation, I guess, for our later activities when we gathered at Main and Hastings to go carolling there and at neighbourhood shelters. At 11:30 we gathered at the RIO theater to sing with other friends at Immanuel Church. Christmas afternoon near the end of our time together Matt and Mun Hee got us singing again. Somehow Christmas and singing to together. That's the hope. That's the joy of learning to belong again. That's the message of Jesus that Partners in Hope seeks to share every day of the year.
