Book Review:  “How wonderful if we could have a little chat and share a cup of Christmas tea”.  The author’s great aunt invited him over near Christmas for a visit and to share old memories. Begrudgingly he went and is swept back into his childhood past. You probably have heard this poem before and enjoyed the simplicity of that visit. The book is entitled “A Cup of Christmas Tea,” by Tom Heig. You will find it on the top of the bookshelves in our Christmas display.
 




For Sale
:  Four copies of The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis- $10 each.  See Pastor Sally if interested.
