Christmas message from Rachel

Dear All,

I hope you are enjoying Advent and that in all the preparation for Christmas you are managing to find a few moments to reflect on the wondorous mystery of the incarnation - the greatest fulfilment of a mission strategy that there ever was, the birth of a baby round the back in a stable!

Have a Blessed and Happy Christmas,

With Love

Rachel and Suzie
