MARY: Covered via Ultimate
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Merry Christmas!
COT: Enjoy! Remember that one of the best things about the Holiday season is gathering with friends and family. Thank God for all your blessings and that you’re standing amongst brothers and (potentially) their families. Enjoy the day and give thanks to those who could gather in the gloom. And pray for all those that could not gather that they will return soon! Aye!
