Peace to your House! A very MERRY CHRISTMAS to all our Crusader Families!
There
were shepherds living out in the fields nearby. It was night, and they
were taking care of their sheep. An angel of the Lord appeared to them.
And the glory of the Lord shone around them, “Do not be afraid. I
bring you good news. It will bring great joy for all the people. Today
in the town of David a Savior has been born to you. He is the Messiah,
the Lord. Here is how you will know I am telling you the truth. You
will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth and lying in a manger.”
Suddenly a large group of angels from heaven also appeared. They were
praising God. They said, “May glory be given to God in the highest
heaven! And may peace be given to those He is pleased with on earth!”
The angels left and went into heaven. Then the shepherds said to one
another, “let’s go to Bethlehem. Let’s see this thing that has
happened, which the Lord has told us about.” So, they hurried off and
found Mary and Joseph and the baby. The baby was lying in the manger.
After the shepherds had seen him, they told everyone. They reported
what the angel had said about this child. All who heard it were amazed
at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary kept all these things like
a secret treasure in her heart. She thought about them over and over.
The shepherds returned. They gave glory and praise to God. Everything
they had seen and heard was just as they had been told.
What
if it had been you and I living out in those fields. Would we have
answered the invitation to participate in the greatest miracle the world
has ever known?

Williston
Trinity Christian School was established in 1992 in Williston North
Dakota. For the past 27 years, God has inspired His people to support
our school with their prayers, their participation, and their financial
support! And every year, God’s people have responded and participated
in this miracle that we call WTCS!
WTCS
is funded by tuition from our students’ families (which contributes to
about 60% of the cost to educate each student) and by the generosity of
our Donors, in order to help keep our tuition as low as possible to all
our students, preschool through grade 12.
WTCS
doesn’t receive any government supported funds (even indirectly through
loans, etc.), which allows us to remain truly independent. Because of
this, we can talk about God, Christian Values, and live out our faith
every day!

And finally, many of our friends and extended family have faced tremendous challenges this past year. Many of us have lost a family member, lost friends, shared serious medical problems and confronted all sorts of personal issues. Please know that you have all been in our prayers and our thoughts. God bless each one of you and your loved ones at this special time of year. We pray that you have a safe, happy, and blessed Christmas.
