Once again, we are starting to stir things up for Christmas. What comes to your mind when you reflect on preparing for Christmas? As a child, a big part of getting ready for Christmas for me was dreaming. Yes, dreaming, of what the tree would look like, what part would I have in the church program on Christmas Eve, and what gifts were going to be under the tree.
This year, more than ever, I have started reflecting on the signs of Christmas in my childhood home. It usually started with my mother placing an Advent wreath on our dining room buffet. Next came music – usually Christmas records that had familiar carols and beautiful choirs. There were hymns, too, that took us right from the kitchen to snow-capped steeples. When Silent Night was sung, thoughts about the beauty and warmth of a candlelight service on Christmas Eve came to mind.
