HE LEAPT FOR JOY WITHIN HER
Good morning everyone. May you be blessed this Christmas morn. I pray you have a blessed time with your family today. I am expecting all the family here today (about 70 of us). I have a large turkey cooking in one oven and a big piece of lamb in another oven. And now I had better start peeling potatoes and sweet potatoes. Everyone will bring food so we will have a feast and precious fellowship.

Mary Visits Elizabeth
A few days later Mary hurried to the hill country of Judea, to the town where Zechariah lived. She entered the house and greeted Elizabeth. At the sound of Mary's greeting, Elizabeth's child leaped within her, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
Elizabeth gave a glad cry and exclaimed to Mary, "God has blessed you above all women, and your child is blessed. Why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should visit me? When I heard your greeting, the baby in my womb jumped for joy. You are blessed because you believed that the Lord would do what he said."
Love from NANCY
