DECEMBER 2025

Dear Church, 
Let us celebrate this Christmas with our Community 

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven" - Matthew 5:16 

We are near to the blessed season of Christmas, our hearts return to the humble stable in Bethlehem, where the greatest gift the world has ever known was laid in a manger. Christmas is not only a celebration of Christ’s birth but also a reminder of God’s desire for us to live in loving, supportive community.   

The birth of Jesus Christ shows us that God enters our world not through grand displays but through shared moments: through family, fellowship, and everyday acts of kindness. The first Christmas was a gathering of unexpected guests: shepherds, travellers, and angels, all united by the good news that a Saviour had been born. In that moment, God formed a new kind of community, one bound not by status or background, but by the shared hope found in Christ. 

Today, we are called to reflect that same spirit of togetherness. Christmas invites us to open our hearts and our doors, to reach out to those who may be lonely, struggling, or far from home. Whether it is through a simple phone call, a warm meal, or a helping hand, we become living reminders of God’s love when we care for one another. 

As a church family, this season gives us a special opportunity to strengthen our bonds. When we worship together, serve together, and celebrate together, we shine Christ’s light more brightly in our neighbourhood and beyond. Community is not just something we belong to, it is something we build through love, compassion, generosity, and shared faith. 

May this Christmas renew in us a deep sense of connection to God and to each other. May Christ’s peace fills our gatherings, His joy uplifts our spirits, and His love guide us in bringing hope to our community. 

Wishing you a blessed and meaningful Christmas! 

​God Bless, 
Amutha
