MERRY CHRISTMAS
to all at the Canteen and to our military men and women, past and present.
And to those who are serving abroad, our heart-felt thanks for doing what must be done though it keeps you far from home and away from family and friends. Your sacrifices are appreciated more than you may ever know.

Christingle
December 25, 2013
In the Czech Republic and other places, the Christmas celebration includes Christingles. A Christingle is an orange, representing the world, with a candle placed in the top of it to symbolize Christ the light of the world. A red ribbon encircles the orange, symbolizing the blood of Jesus. Four toothpicks with dried fruits are placed through the ribbon into the sides of the orange, representing the fruits of the earth.
This simple visual aid vividly represents the purpose behind Christs comingto bring light into the darkness and to redeem a broken world by shedding His blood.
In Johns account of Christs life, the disciple describes Jesus as the Light of the world. He wrote of Christ: That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world (John 1:9). Not only did Christ the Light come to penetrate our worlds darkness, but He is also The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! (v.29).
Think of it! The baby of Bethlehem became the living, risen Christ who has rescued us from our sin. And so John instructs us to walk in the light as He is in the light (1 John 1:7). May all who have experienced His rescue find in Jesus the peace of walking in His light.
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in Thee tonight. Brooks
The newborn Christ-child became the Light of the world and the Lamb of God.

Merry Christmas to all the denizens of the Canteen.
It is 06:15 on Christmas morning and I've not slept a wink.
Zombie shift at the weekend ensured that.
Season Greetings to you all!

MERRY CHRISTMAS CANTEENERS, TROOPS,
AND ALL THE SHIPS AT SEA!!
Reporting Live from The Bunker in the Sunshine State, it's Sarge and The Tribe!
Well, here's a long-ago memory from right here at the Canteen, the hearth of Sarge's Fireplace in Iraq, on a Christmas Eve eight years ago:
Fast-forward to Christmas 2013. The Bunker is ablaze with light and song, visitors have come and gone, the aromas of food and wine and pipe smoke fill the halls. The best Christmas Sarge has known in a long time.
I have The Bride to thank for so much.
Sarge will be in and out, so Let's Have Fun!
