On behalf of the staff of the Lutheran Educators’ Guild, I would like to wish all of our readers a most blessed Christmas.  For many of us, Christmas is a busy time as we travel, do last-minute shopping, get our homes ready to open to friends and family.  It is our prayer that all of us would find the time to reflect upon the True Reason for the season, as we remember how our Loving Father gave us His Perfect Gift on that first Christmas so many years ago.  And let us also remember that this Gift, the gift of salvation through Jesus, has been given to us that we might share it with the rest of the world.

Let us join our voices with the host of Heaven and sing: “Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth peace to men on whom His favor rests!” (Luke 2:14, NIV)
