|  | | Dear Brothers,
Let me take this opportunity to say "Merry Christmas to you and your families!"
This is the time of year when we remember that God sent his only son 'to serve, not to be served'. He restored love and service to the centre of our lives in the person of Jesus Christ.
It is my prayer this Christmas Day that his example and teaching will continue to bring people together to give the best of themselves in the service of others.
Let us allow our hearts to be touched, let us allow ourselves to be warmed by the tenderness of our deeds. Let us allow ourselves to be moved by the goodness of those around us.
For many, the holiday season is also a time for coming together. But for others inlcuding many in our noble clan, service will come first. Those serving in our armed forces, in our emergency services and in our hospitals, whose sense of duty takes them away from family and friends, will be missing those they love.
And those who have lost loved ones may find this day especially full of memories. That's why it's important at this time of year to reach out beyond our familiar relationships to think of those who are on their own.
Here's wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Yours in the Bond,
Korlon |
