Merry Christmas

From NNYM Texas and Rick & Carol

The words of the Christmas story that I love and appreciate begin with “Do not be afraid.” The angel’s announcement to an unlikely crew began the story of how we experience life to the fullest. The words in the song King of Kings by Hillsong Worship tell the story:

“And the church of Christ was born. Then the Spirit lit the flame. Now the gospel truth of old, shall not kneel, shall not faint. By His blood and in His name, In His freedom, I am free. For the love of Jesus Christ, who has resurrected me.”

 As we experience the story of Jesus every day, we pray that God continues to show us His strength, love, and peace. This is why we do what we do. Let’s celebrate Him every day!

It is an honor to serve Youth and Youth Influencers in Texas and beyond. Thank you for all you do to help our ministry make a difference and fulfill the mission God gave us! Over the next few weeks, as we all jump into various activities, remember God’s love for us: He sent His one and only son so we might have life. Also, remember that we treasure you and your families.

We would also covet your prayers over our team and to consider giving an end-of-year donation as we begin to plan for 2023. Thank you in advance!

Here is our 2022 National impact report from NNYM:

Blessings and much to you this season, my “Texas” team!!!

Never Alone because We Are Better Together,

Rick
