A New Year. mmm….just writing
those words makes me feel a bit
like when I was a kid waiting for
Christmas morning to finally
come so I could open those pre-
sents that had tantalizingly been piling up
under the tree. A delicious sort of antici-
pation. That’s what the beginning of the
New Year is like to me: everyday a gift,
365 of them just waiting for each rising of
the sun to unwrap, to discover, and enjoy.
Now, lest you think I’m totally naive, yes, I
do realize that not everyday turns out to
be like the best Christmas present you’ve
ever received. In truth, some days can feel
like anything but a gift. Recently my sis-
ter’s husband suffered a stroke while they
were on a mission trip to the Philippines. So
far from home, her children, and family,
with her husband’s future hanging in the
balance. I’m quite sure she didn’t feel like
that day was a gift. So, what is it we’re
“unwrapping” on such days? Well, my sister
tells me that what she discovered in those
harrowing days was an acute awareness of
Christ’s presence with her. That all her
years of daily choosing to walk close with
God bore a sweet, and precious fruit of
peace. She said that a “peace that passeth all understanding” engulfed her, and that
she had never felt so close to Christ in
those days by her husband’s side in a Filipi-
no hospital. She just knew that no matter
what happened, death or life, recovery or
not, God had them both in his loving hands.
The gift that came to her was an intense
sense of God’s presence, of God’s love for
them both.
My hope this year is that we all will awake
to the day grateful for the gift. That we
will be people stepping into each day ahead
trusting that no matter what it holds that
we will trust that our loving God holds us in
his hands.
Happy New Year! Pastor Wendy
P.S. ... Here’s a song that has turned into
my morning prayer: “Morning Prayer” by
Michael Card. You can easily find it on
YouTube. Here’s the link:

ADULT EDUCATION BOOK
STUDY STARTING
IN JANUARY “How has the cultural landscape of the
last 75 years changed roles of men and
women in society? Why have we seen
such a dramatic change in the fabric of
our families and issues surrounding
work, marriage, divorce, abortion, child
bearing and child rearing?” Starting
January 8th Pastor Smithson will lead a
book discussion of Lionel Tiger’s “The Decline of Males.” Dr. Tiger worked as
the Charles Darwin Professor of An-
thropology at Rutgers University and
provides some astonishing insights into
the changes our culture has undergone
in modern times.
FINANCIAL PEACE
UNIVERSITY CLASS Would you benefit by having more con-
trol of your money? Would it help to
have a better understanding of how to
use money God’s way? FPU is a scrip-
ture based study for getting out of
debt and staying that way. This is the
life changing program designed by
Dave Ramsey. Classes will start Mon-
day, Jan. 9th, 7 pm, here at our church.
The classes are about two hours long,
once a week for 9 weeks. Yes, there is
homework. Success takes determina-
tion. We have purchased kits at a dis-
count price to help any who wish to
attend – from the community and our
church. If you have already taken the
class and want a review, just sign up,
there is no further cost. To sign up, or
ask questions, contact Rosalie Doty, or
the church office. TEACHER RECOGNITION
SUNDAY January 29th is a change of date
from last months date that was in the
Highlights as the day to recognize and
thank our Sunday School Teachers. We
are blessed with a large number of
wonderful and dedicated people who
make it possible for us to have classes
for every age and a childcare program.
During Sunday class time we are having
a brunch and sharing time for all these
leaders. While teachers meet, Lu
Meiner has a special activity planned
for adults and children.

CHRISTMAS BASKETS 2016 Again this December the old Manna rooms became the staging area for our annual
Christmas Basket project. Bill piled in as many tables as would fit in those rooms
as well as the big classroom. Rainy Birch’s Girl Scout troop moved items out of
storage in Davy Jones Locker and set up the donated items like a store.
The production takes a lot of hours and hands on work. We are es-
pecially grateful to those who donated hours of their time in dis-
tributing and filling the nearly 100 boxes for the 22 families.
Thanks to the donated food staples, non food items, and donated
money to purchase additional items, we had plenty to fill the boxes.
Every family received from 3 to 6 boxes depending on the family’s
size. Each family received a turkey or turkey breast along with fresh vegetables,
cheese, eggs, canned and packaged food, and household items, such as toilet paper,
Kleenex, cleaning supplies and paper towels. Each family also received a Safeway
gift card. In addition three individuals whose living situations could not accommo-
date food storage were given Safeway gift cards to buy food as needed.
The Christmas Baskets (Boxes) is a mission our church has had for many years.
Some of the families receiving the boxes were church members or their relatives,
friends, or acquaintances. In addition each of the five grade schools gave us names
of two student’s families to receive the boxes. There were hugs, tears, smiles and
many “thank yous” from those receiving the boxes. Those delivering the boxes
that snowy morning were equally moved. One comment reported back was “We
thought you were only dropping off a small meal for us, we were totally stunned.
We honestly did not know what was for our next meal. Every single item in those
boxes was needed.”
The Mission and Outreach and Fellowship Committees would like to thank everyone
for their donations, both physical and monetary, for the many helping hands in
sorting, setting up, cleaning up and delivering. Members of the Chain Gang and oth-
er church members and their families delivered the boxes. This was one of Boof
McCrea’s favorite projects-we missed him in person but he was with us in spirit!
Praise be to God with much gratitude, Rosalyn Taylor, Coordinator

service. We serve others with our time, tal-ents, and gifts. In November, the church sent out letters en-couraging us to put God first in our lives and to redefine our generosity from God’s per-spective. We have many Biblical examples ranging from the widow with her mite to the
wealthy Zacchaeus, both of whom were blessed for their heartfelt generosity. If you haven’t already done so, please return your pledge cards as soon as pos-sible. Our individual acts of generosity will multiply and expand into the church, the community, the country, and the world. How exciting is that!

LOVE, FROM TOM & JUDIE SHARPE Yes, it's true...Tom and I will be moving to Chicago in the very near future. Tom
will be moving to another care facility, while I will be living with my son and grand-
daughter (Cadence - 7).
We must say goodbye to our church family here, and it is hard. You have been
so much a part of our lives for so many years. Thank you for all the thoughts and
prayers, cards, signature banners, friendships, prayer shawls, bell ringers, choir
singers, and JOY that you have brought to us. Thank you for Christmas caroling and
visits to Tom at Crestwood. I have loved singing in the choir, directing the King's
Ringers Handbell Choir, and recently directing the Chancel Choir! Every musical mo-
ment with you has been a pure joy!
Now, God is calling us back to the other side of the country. We may find an-
other church, but our church home will always be here in Port Angeles with you.
PEACE and LOVE - Judie and Tom Sharpe
