A special Christmas party

The editor:

For all those who celebrate the real reason for the season, we would like to extend to you the following invitation to a Christmas party:

A special invitation to a Christmas party

You are cordially invited to a birthday celebration!!!

Guest of Honor: Jesus Christ

Date: Every day. Traditionally, December 25. But He’s always around, so the date is flexible.

Time: Whenever you’re ready. Please don’t be late, though, or you’ll miss out on all the fun!

Place: In your heart. He’ll meet you there. (You’ll hear Him knock.)

Attire: Come as you are... grubbies are okay. He’ll be washing our clothes anyway. He said something about new white robes and crowns for everyone who stays till the last.

Tickets: Admission is free. He’s already paid for everyone. He says you wouldn’t have been able to afford it anyway, it cost Him everything He had. But you do need to accept the ticket!!

Refreshments: New wine, bread, and a far-out drink He calls “Living Water,” followed by a supper that He promises to be out of this world!

Gift Suggestions: Your life. He’s one of those people who already has everything else. He is very generous in return though, just wait until you see what He has for you!

Entertainment: Joy, Peace, Truth, Light, Life, Love, Real Happiness, Communion with God, Forgiveness, Eternity in Paradise, Contentment, and much more!

RSVP: Very important! He must know ahead so He can reserve a spot for you at the table. Also He’s keeping a list of His friends for future reference. He calls it the “Lamb’s Book of Life.” Party being given by His Kids (that’s us!!!)

A blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year to you.

Bill and Catherine Riley

  • Bring better movies to Morehead

    Don’t you love a good movie? We certainly do BUT for me that does not include “R” rated films. Of the seven movies advertised in the 1/20/12 issue of the News, five were rated “R.”

  • Abortion advocate change of mind

    As the new year begins, it is quite common to see printed in a newspaper or magazine a list of the names of prominent citizens who passed away in the preceding year. I recently came across such a list, and the name of one individual in particular caught my attention: Dr. Bernard Nathanson.

  • Large sign is unsightly

    While driving to Morehead today, I was dismayed to see that Cracker Barrel has erected one of their typical ultra-high “signs on a stick.” I somehow thought that Morehead’s sign ordinance would protect our community from this unsightliness and that the sign would be the same height as those of surrounding businesses.

  • Political cartoon was off the mark

    I don’t know how the political cartoons you publish are chosen, but I take exception to the one in the Dec. 27, 2011 issue of the paper. The cartoonist obviously does not agree with Time magazine’s choice of The Protester as Person of the Year.
