Merry Christmas “for unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given…” Isaiah 9:6 On this sacred day I am so grateful for the upbringing my parents gave me, insisting that we know the story of Jesus and our Father’s extraordinary gifts to us, and that we value the virtues of peace, hope, grace, joy, faith and prayer. Hau`oli lā hānau - Happy Birthday Jesus, “you’re one cool dude.” May we all constantly strive to be better in your stead.
