Devotion (1)
Verse: Luke 2:7
 ‘’She gave birth to her firstborn, a son.
She wrapped him in clothes and
placed him in a manger because there
was no room for them in the inn.’’
 Because Christmas is right around the
corner, we should remember the true
meaning of Christmas. Of course, it is fun
to get presents and eat good food, but it is
about Jesus. Jesus came to the earth as
a baby, was born in a stable, and died on
a cross for OUR sins. He truly loves us
more than we could ever imagine. He
could have come as an earthly king and
ruled over all the sinners. He could have
had someone else die for the sins of the
world. He did not, though, because he
loves us.

Devotion (2)
He came in so quietly, in a humble
little stable to be born. The first
place baby Jesus lay his head was
in a dirty manger.
 So, this Christmas remember the
true meaning. Thank Jesus for all
he did, and how he has blessed you.
 Have A Very Merry Christmas!

Local News

People of the ECS community, there is a
rare orange and black butterfly called the
monarch. When you’re out walking
around, look towards the milkweed and
nectar. Some people wonder how the
monarch knows where to go to migrate.
Something interesting is that they look to
the sun to know when to go. A monarch
weighs an average of ½ a gram, .27 to .75.
the monarch is less than 1 cm to 5 cm.
