\"\"<\/a>National Inspirational Youth<\/em> Convention (NIYC )- December 27th -29th, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

What would it look like if youth, adults, and seniors asked God what matters to Him? What would it look like if instead of focusing on what society focuses on we actually placed all of our attention on the things that Christ cares about? Jesus is about Justice, Righteousness, Unity and Love. This year’s convention will be virtual. Registration is NOT required.<\/strong><\/em> For more information visit:\u00a0https:\/\/www.niyc.org\/<\/p>\n

Holiday Inspiration:\u00a0<\/strong>“The Three Miracles”<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>by Sandy Meyer
\nThis whimsical fantasy brings the Nativity Story and\u00a0Santa Claus<\/a>\u00a0together for an amazing tale. The creatures of a snowy forest are awakened by a star falling out of the sky, followed soon by Santa Claus himself. He tells the animals the star appeared when Christ was born. It shone bright for all the world to see, but as the world grew dark, so did the star, until its light was lost, and it fell to the ground. Santa is unable to navigate since the star showed him the way.<\/p>\n

The badgers and the rabbits fight over who gets the star and would then rule the forest, wounding their squirrel friend in the chaos. Fearing he\u2019s dead, they sing Silent Night, and the first miracle happens as the rabbits and badgers reconcile. The star\u2019s light grows as they sing and forgive, then the squirrel wakes. At the end, the star rushes into the night sky, bright and magnificent once more. With\u00a0faith<\/a>\u00a0in Christ, the star will never fade.<\/p>\n

Bible Verses to reflect on:
\n<\/strong>\u201cNow the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.”<\/em> Matthew 1:18<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe virgin will conceive and give birth to a son,\u00a0and they will call him Immanuel\u201d (which means \u201cGod with us\u201d).”<\/em>\u2013 Matthew 1:23<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, ‘Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!’\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>\u2013 John 1:29<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
