All right, good evening and welcome. You can be seated. So glad you're here tonight.

I want to welcome those of you that are joining us online. We're so glad that you are.

Before we get started, I want to mention a couple things actually, starting with our Christmas Eve service.

Saturday night, start time is 5 p.m. So you might want to make a note of that.

Also, we're not having a Sunday morning service Christmas morning. We are having Sunday morning

services on New York, New York's Day, you know, rough week already.

We're not off to a good start, but you know what I'm easy for me to say, right?

So here's the drill. This Sunday will be the last update until January 8th because again no service on Christmas

morning the 25th. Pastor Mack will be teaching on New Year's Day Sunday morning services

and then also between Pastor Mack and Pastor Laito, they're going to be filling in for me, starting, by the way, next Thursday. So tonight we're going to, Lord willing, heavy on the Lord willing, three more chapters chapters again two of which are very short

thank you Lord but so we're not gonna pick up our Jeremiah study again until

if my date is right Thursday, January 12th.

Because this Thursday upcoming, I should say a week from today,

is this too much?

I probably should have written this down.

Anyway, you're thoroughly confusing, right?

Okay, it's a gift.

So next Thursday my sister flies in from California.

I haven't spent very much time with her, and this year it's very important that I do.

So I'm going to have Pastor Mack teach next Thursday, and then the next two Thursdays, it's Pastor Leitou.

And then I will be back and we'll resume our Jeremiah study, and again, I think it's the

12th.
