Finally I got home. The snow has been and is coming down big time, sometimes it has been difficult to drive; it is so good to be home! Soon I’m going to make dinner as we usually had in my childhood. Rib from pork, brown sauce and sourcrout. I love it. At last for this one time a year. Tradition is a good thing I think, usually. So after the dinner there will be time for opening gifts and just enjoy myself and my Christmas-house ;o) There will probably also be some phone calls to my family in the eastern part of Norway - and maybe a little run her on the www.
This post is mostly to whish you all a:
Merry Christmas!!
24
Finally the 24 th door can be opened!
I am up and are soon going out of my home not to return for many hours. At 12 am I take the ferry over to the other side and then there is a drive for an hour to get to the church where the first service are held. Then I’m driving back again, stopping on my way home for a service in the other church I’m pastor for on the south side.
It usually are a lot of people in church, it is a good day and the singing reach heights like no time else in the year. This year I’ll be accompanied with some youths; some shall sing, some shall light candles during prayer. I’m looking forward to it and are a little stressed - are the sermon ready, do I have the plan for the service secured, what about the snow - can we drive as fast as we should do??
Yea! It’s snow here, come last night. It’s beautiful. But I don’t want to drive on these roads with the “I-must-drive-fast-enough-so-I-reach-the-ferry-back-home” hanging over my shoulder. (It is not the very last trip, but there are an hour to wait!)
Well, in some way or another it will turn out just fine - I know that! But still….
Have a wonderful day! Merry Christmas and God’s peace to mankind!
Love
