Our
youth had a “white Christmas”- even
here in Tlaxcala with 70 degree weather this year!
Using
shaved ice, the youth built tiny snowmen, and had a “snow” (or ice) fight. They went cross-country ski racing – on wooden
“skis” over the concrete. It even “snowed”
during our party!- when candy showered the
youth from our traditional
Mexican-Christmas piñata.
Though
snow is practically unknown among our youth, we did appreciate how we can each
have a “white Christmas” in Christ.
Teaching from Psalm 51, we read how God can make us “white as snow”
through His forgiveness, offered through the
shedding of Jesus´ blood on the
cross for us. Jesus´ coming, remembered
at Christmastime, has made our lives “snow
white”!
