Christmas for the Family

Family Christmas traditions are wonderful ways to foster deep bonding. I asked some friends what they do on the holidays. A dear friend says that on Christmas Day have their annual family reunion that involves several generations of family members. Another friend said that shes has a special Christmas memories scrapbook. In it are pictures taken during Christmas reunions, a detailed menu of the Christmas Noche Buena and New Year's Eve meals, with notes on who bought what for the reunion potluck.
Going through this memory scrapbook at Christmas gives our family many reasons to thank the Lord for past blessings and to pray for family members who experienced crises during the year.
