What does Christmas mean to me?

By Kristy Mills

One of the easiest things a person can ask me is “what does Christmas mean to me?”

This is truly in my opinion one of the best times of the year. As a single mom, I truly enjoy the time I get to spend with my two kids at all the amazing events around our beautiful town of Roscommon.

Making memories is one of the most important things to do as a family. However, I get to take those memories even a step further. I am the local pastor at Beacon Assembly of God. I am so lucky, I get to celebrate not just with my kids, but kids of all ages from our community.

Christmas is truly a time of reflecting the true meaning, which is the Birth of our savior Jesus Christ. I have the amazing privilege of bringing this story to life to our elementary aged kids every year in our 11 a.m. services throughout December.

As always, participating in a beautiful Christmas Eve candlelight service alongside our senior pastor is a rewarding experience. We get to share the story of Jesus and bring blessing to our community in the process. If you would like to join us, we would love to welcome you at 5 pm.

Now is a time to slow down, enjoy the little moments, make memories, and reflect on the reason for the season. Merry CHRISTmas from me, Pastor Kristy, and all of us at Beacon Assembly of God in Roscommon.
