December Devotional: Messiah, God With Us

"Last Tuesday, I had a "God with us" stop. I stopped at my mailbox to get my mail, leaving my car running. When I returned to my car, it had malfunctioned and locked all the doors. There I was, at 7:30 at night, in 24 degree weather, locked out from my purse, cell phone, and all that connected me to my world. I felt alone and cold and tired and frustrated. Then "God with us, Emmanuel" came into my thinking and I began to pray and ask God what to do."

SPS Chapter Makes Christmas Stockings for Local Children

Christmas is such a wonderful time of giving! In that spirit, this year our group prepared and donated stockings for the children of New Phoebe House, in Tacoma.

The recipients are mothers and children challenged by homelessness and drug use. Recovery is beautiful! We are thankful for this opportunity to serve.
