It’s beginning to look alot like Christmas around the Angie/Varnado communities and throughout the parish. Lights and decorations can be seen in yards, schools, on houses and more. I did a little research on the meaning of Christmas Lights and thought I would share it with you. I hope this snippet of information enlightens you. Lights and Candles: May the beautiful lights of every holiday season remind us of Him who is the source of all light.” 1 Christmas lights can remind us that Jesus Christ is the Light of the World. They can also remind us to be lights to others and to help others come unto Christ. (Ten Symbols of Chritsmas; By Charlotte Larcabal and Eric B. Murdock / Church Magazines).

Reflections:
*My daughter shared that her sixteen year old son told her something interesting about school the other day. He said that one of his school teachers reminds him of me, because she plays Gospel music in the classroom. Now here’s the really, really interesting thing that made me proud and I quote, “My teacher is a Super Christain just like my MawMaw”. I Thank God that my grandson can see God in my life. #Romans1:16
*Take care of one another, GPigott
