The people walking in darkness have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9: 2, 6 NRSV

Gift suggestions are on the noticeboard in the Gathering Area. Approx. $10-$20 each. No clothing or battery-operated toys, thank you. Gifts need to be unwrapped, but wrapping paper and tape would be appreciated! Bring your gift by Wednesday morning 13th December.
