Don’t you love all the extra mail the month of December normally brings with it? It’s fun to open all the pretty Christmas cards and see the family photos, but I especially enjoy reading the newsy letters that are often included.
Sending such newsy letters is one of our family's longest standing holiday traditions. Not only do our annual Christmas updates help us keep in touch with distant family and friends, but they also provide an easy way to chronicle our family history and to share Christ/give testimony to God's faithfulness.
SCRIPTURES CITED:"Bless the LORD, my soul, and do not forget any of His benefits." - Psalm 103:2
