Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
The Moderator of the 24th General Assembly has sent a Christmas message to the entire church.
He observes that as we close the year 2024 and usher in the year 2025, there is a lot to thank God for. God has sustained us, and even where we faced challenges, his faithfulness has given us fortitude to press on.
He also reminds the church that it is in the year 2024 that the 24th General Assembly journey started guided by the theme, “…we will serve the Lord” (Joshua 24:15). Joshua chose to serve the Lord not because it was the easier option but because it was the best option. We are called upon to serve the Lord even in the midst of myriad issues within us, in families, in the church, and in the Nation.
He says that Christmas is a time to celebrate a God who became human in order to redeem humanity that was in a fallen state. He calls upon all of us to help the disadvantaged during this season in order to spread the love of Christ.
