Welcome
Welcome to the 2013 Celebration of the Season! The Church of Christ at East Side is delighted to host this special event, and we are glad you are here. So, please make yourself comfortable and enjoy the evening. As we listen to the concert and join in singing, let us remember the major event recorded in Luke’s gospel where suddenly the angel who spoke to the shepherds that night was joined by a vast host of others – the armies of heaven – praising God: ‘Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to all whom God favors’ (Luke 2:13-14). The Savior of the world was born that night in Bethlehem. This is truly good news of great joy. To celebrate this good news in song is the purpose behind our Celebration of the Season, so let’s celebrate!
May this evening be special for all. May God make this season a season to rejoice in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Thank You
We express our thanks to the Church of Christ at East Side for hosting the 2013 edition of Celebration of the Season, to the ladies of East Side for the refreshments, the East Side leadership for agreeing to host this event, and Marlon McGhee for being our emcee. Much thanks goes to those in the office, the visual and audio technicians for providing their expertise, to Mike Tackett for the web and logo design and many of the beautiful group slides. Of course we are thankful to each of the groups for sharing their talent with us, to our expert song leaders, and to The Paperless Hymnal® for the song slides and program printing. We express our thanks to you for your continued support. But more than anyone else, we express our thanks to our Lord God for giving us the reason to sing His praises, showing us what love is all about in sending His Son to a lost world and thus providing for our eternal salvation.
