We wish you and yours a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!
"...the order of God requires that on Christmas day Believers should make perfect reconciliation, one with another; and leave all grudges, hard feelings, and disaffection one toward an other, eternally behind on this day; and to forgive as we would be forgiven; and nothing which is this day settled, or which has been previous to this, may hereafter be brought forward against another."
- Edward and Faith Andrews, The Order of Christmas. NY: Oxford Press, 1954
