Centralia Stake Relief Society

It is our hope and prayer that all is well with you at this Christmas season. As we collectively celebrate the miracle of the dear Savior's birth we do hope that you will be mightily blessed with the joy and peace of the season. God's message to all the world so long ago is the same today, which is that His son, Jesus Christ was the "bright and morning star" (Revelation 22:16) He was "the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world..."(John 1:9) It is His light that brings us out of personal darkness into a brightness filled with hope. May we always remember that Jesus Christ is the "Light which shineth in darkness." D&C 10:58) In every season of our lives, in all of the challenges we may encounter, and in each hardship we may face the Savior is the light that dispels fear, provides assurance and direction, and engenders enduring peace and joy in our hearts. Our prayer is that Jesus Christ will give you the strength and comfort you need to persevere along your life journey and that you will find true joy during this Christmas season.
           
Sincerely Yours,
Centralia Stake Presidency,
