Joy to the world, the Lord is come ...
With Christmas only a few days away I'd like to take this time to wish each one of your a blessed Christmas. Thanks for your interest in this blog over the last year. I am taking a few weeks holidays now so there won't be any new posts until the end of January.
With over 500 posts so far on this blog, there is plenty of interesting and inspirational reading material. Click on the categories to the right and have a browse through ... and of course, the comments section is always an interesting read.
Grace and peace!
Have a great Christmas yourselves Mark and Nic - as well as to all readers and commenters, Marija, John BV, etal.
I am on leave taking time for family and Scuba Diving will be back in the New Year to convert you all to domgatic Lutheranism! :-)

Have a blessed and refreshing Christmas break Mark, Nicole and family. You deserve it! Thank you Mark for all your encouraging and stimulating articles you share here on your blog. Praying God's very best for you all for Christmas, with your move and the coming New Year 2010. Take care. Love you all heaps.
Thank you for your kind Christmas greetings Richard. The same to you my friend. Enjoyed blogging with you and with all the rest. Learned a few things along the way :) All the best with your scuba diving. Enjoy your family time away and take care. Having family staying over from interstate, so I'll be taking a break myself.

Hi Mark,

John - Over the summer months I am attending a local Anglican Church as the Saturday pm service allows me to do Surf Club over the summer months. High Church - it's a nice change.

Merry Christmas to you and yours Mark. Thank you so much for this blog. I read it and am encouraged, challenged, inspired etc etc... I know how busy you must be and yet you bother to spend this time to give us a look inside your head and heart! Just that you bother is inspirational! Hoping you have a really restful break with your family. We love CityLife and we feel so blessed to be a part of what the Lord is doing in our time.
