		<description>Just thinking and praying for Rev. Bruce and Donna, Dawn &amp; Sarah.  They all have been so much a part of BUC for so long, and they are missing David very deeply.   Just remember them in your prayers.

Here is a prayer that I want to share to bring hope for the the coming Christmas for Bruce, Donna, Dawn, Sarah and Tara and all others that may be feeling "blue" right now.

Dear Heavenly Father, we come to you to acknowledge the “blue 
feelings” we are having at this Christmas time. Sometimes we even feel guilty because we have these feelings. The world tells us it is supposed to be a time of joy and celebration and yet it can be some of the darkest times for us. We offer up to you all those things we are feeling and all the situations that worry us and ask that you heal our pains and remove the loneliness. Help us to recognize the pressures of the season that drag us into the darkness and turn them over to you. 

Amen

May each of you find hope and Jesus this coming Christmas.  As Bruce said today in Church, they just called him Jesus, as he is a friend you can talk to anytime day or night.</description>
