We have so many things to be thankful to God for every day! It is a true blessing to see and experience the spirit of thanks and giving of the holiday season. Sometimes though, the holiday season can be difficult for those who have experienced recent loss of the past year. Please remember them and be present in their lives with your love and care during the season. Theodore Roosevelt said it well when he said, “Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.” Be a presence to someone this week!Mike Hughes
