We believe that the angels who sang in Bethlehem many hundreds of years ago are still singing. We can hear them in a special way during the Christmas season. Their songs are echoed through Christmas hymns and carols on your car radio, or in a mall. Have you heard them? Would you like to help more people hear them?

Cookie Baker's Prayer
God, bless the work of my hands. Bless those who eat these cookies. Let the joy of Christmas fill their hearts. May Jesus be made known through Christmas carols singing, through conversation and even though these cookies. May Jesus be known through all the efforts of all of our volunteers. Amen.
