On Christmas Eve special Combined Service will be held at 7:00 p.m. On Christmas Day our English Service will begin at 9:00 a.m., our Hungarian Service at 11:00 a.m. Holy Communion will be observed at both worship services. Our Holiday assistant is Ollie Hall, who completes her theological studies in this school year at Yale Seminary. In closing of our report, we would like to extend a heartfelt Christmas greeting to all; may the Spirit of Love, Fellowship and Peace fill your hearts and mind with HIM who came to be Saviour of the World, even Jesus Christ our Lord.
