Christian Church 24.7 Ministry Community Group
Welcome to our church! We are glad you have chosen to join us. Please read the important guidelines for the group first.
I will post a message tomorrow for Sunday but, I also wanted to share with you a poem I wrote about Christmas.
"That's what Christmas means to me"
Often times when Christmas comes
At the end of every year
We get caught up in worldly things
In the Festivity and the cheer
I remember in my childhood
Crowing up in a Christian home
We didn't have a lot of things
That most folks seemed to own
My parents always had a tree
And mom would hang the lights
The kind that bubbled when they burned
They were such a pretty sight
There never were a lot of gifts
Or packages under the tree
One or two for mom and dad
My brother, my sister and, me
Mom and dad did the best they could
To try and raise me right
The greatest thing they did for me
They taught me of Jesus Christ
They told me of His lowly birth
In a far and distant land
No one life, has touched this world
As this babe from Bethlehem
We know little of His childhood
Growing up near Galilee
His public life was about three years
Then, He died upon a tree
He was born in a borrowed manger
Never owned a house or a home
Spent His life among the needy
Had little to call His own
He spoke of love and kindness
He healed the blind and lame
He touched the broken hearted
And today, we praise His name
He gave His life for all mankind
His blood he shed for all
That we may have eternal life
When upon His name we call
Most people think of Christmas
About happiness, love and joy
But, I was taught this story
When I was just a boy
May you know the Christ of Christmas
Let your trouble heart be free
Place your soul in His safe keeping
That's what Christmas means to me.

Just thought I would join this group now that I am a widower. My wife passed away May 28th. She was "The Wind Beneath My Wings". When I met her, I was a drunken, dope smoking, fighting, hell raising biker. She told me if I could get rid of the inner storm within me, that I could be a blessing to people. God placed her in my path to stop me. I have been drug and alcohol free now for 53...

My husband and I got our foster license last month, after 3 years of hard work (we had to start over multiple times due to family dramas and Mom's open heart surgery). We spent a year preparing the whole house, guest rooms, and children's bathroom for older kids of 7 yr old and up. Then we got a call that we have been approved to receive twin newborn premies. What, what?!! Babies!? Premies?!...
