Can Martha have a Mary Christmas?

Can Martha have a Mary Christmas? I love the title of this book by Brenda Poinsett which is a take off on the Biblical Mary and Martha of Bethany who both served Jesus in different ways. This Christmas, we all have good intentions of being like Mary, resting at the feet of Christ. But during this busiest season of the year, the “Martha” role seems to inevitably creep in and replace Christmas awe with Christmas stress.

At Peace, we are striving to help you have a Mary Christmas. Offering many opportunities of advent devotion, worship and spiritual preparation for Christmas, we invite you to come along to the manger with us. Please put aside all unnecessary distractions and join us in worshiping, connecting and serving our newborn King.

See you in church,
Polly Wegner
Director of Discipleship
