i find it inspiring that
the christmas story
begins with people
of faith.
First there was Zechariah and Elizabeth, then Mary,
then Joseph. Before anyone around them could see
God at work, both couples believed God's promises
and prepared themselves to be part of something
extraordinary: the revelation of God's Son.
During this Christmas season, let me encourage you to be ready for God to use you in
exciting ways too. Don't lose heart over loved ones who don't yet know Christ like you do:
share something of your faith with them. Seek out new ideas and activities that help your
children understand, more deeply, the wonder of God's love. From the very beginning, the
Christmas story assures us that when we are faithful, God will work in amazing ways.
Choosing faith-building Christmas gifts is a great way to be part of what God is doing in
the lives of others too. Here in our catalogue you'll find wonderful gift ideas, all carefully
selected for uplifting content and consistency with God's Word. And you'll find many more
ideas in our online store.
Should you need personal help with your gift selection, please don't hesitate to call our
toll-free number. We're thrilled to have you shop with us, since your gift purchases help us
support other Canadian families year long, through guidance, resources and prayer.
Blessings to you,
Terence Rolston
