Christmas celebrations...

WELCOME !

to our 
Christmas
celebrations
on *St. Nicholas day!
stepping through the door
into the warmth of the blazing yule
before us 
a warm cup of cheer to relax
heart and mind ~
simplicity of winter white
or
cheerfulness of holiday holly
the ambience of flickering candlelight
catching the glitter of decorations
 waiting to be added to the tree...
cards to be written ~




while strains of our favourite songs
remind us of the reason for the season...


and

It's True!


O Come O Come Emmanuel


'O Come, Desire of nations,
bind in one the hearts of all mankind;
bid Thou our sad divisions cease,
and be Thyself our King of Peace...
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel'

praying for your every blessing of
worship & celebration
this Holy Season !

    Oh, I just love the Victorian images! Love your very large animated snowflakes - that was on my wish list of things to do but didnt! Love the warmth and coziness of your post - thank you for joining me at Christmas with Victoria - you've made it all the more special,
    Kathy
