An Advent message from Bishop Deborah Lieder Kiesey …
As we walk through the season of Advent, we think of how much God loves us. That God loves us so much He gave the greatest gift… Jesus!
As we think about this gift … a gift of extreme love … we can think about how it has changed our lives. How the celebration of Christmas is so powerful … t warms our hearts and deepens our faith.
As a result, we want to share that gift of love with others. For family members, we often express this love through the giving of gifts.
But unlike love, these gifts may not last a lifetime. However, there is one gift that will express God’s love for a lifetime.
This year, our Michigan Area Advent offering will go toward changing lives through our Camping Ministries Campaign. Your gift will help to provide a safe place for children, youth and families to experience the Life Changing Love of Christ.
As you ponder the gifts you will give this Christmas, I invite you to prayerfully consider a gift to our Camping Ministries. Your gift can Change Lives forever.
May God Bless you this Christmas,
