Revelation 22:10-21
And he said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near. Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.”
“Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”
Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates. Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.”
The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price.
I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.

Historical Highlight Luncheon This Thursday, January 6, 12:00 pm with George & Fran Holman: We look forward to our first “HH” gathering since COVID began! We will start with lunch in the LSB then go to the Alumni Museum to see the 3D exhibit of how French Camp looked in the late 1800’s/early 1900’s. George & Fran, parents of Rebecca Edwards, are the artists who made the exhibit and did an amazing job! Note: Our wonderful cook, Marilyn Harvey, is unable to coordinate these meals due to her health; if you could help with either the food or serving, let Mary Nell know.
Congregational Meeting Next Sunday, January 9: Plan to stay after church for a brief meeting to approve the budget and get an update on progress with the building.
