Your gift can
be your time
Now we are getting ready for Christmas. Black Friday is over. Cyber Monday is over. Hope everyone was able to get all the goodies that they wanted at a price that they could afford.
I have listened to a lot of advice on Christmas Shopping. First thing is to decide what you can afford to spend. Then the next hardest job is to stay within that budget. Sometimes you may design and make a lot of the gifts that you give. Sometimes your gift can be your time in helping someone. There are many gifts that can be given that you do not have to buy.
Rev. Ronnie Whittington is home in the care of his wife and family. His mother, sisters and brother from Detroit, and his daughter from Hawaii spent Thanksgiving with him. Remember him, his wife and family in your prayers.
