When we reflect upon the significance of that birth and the resulting sacrifice that was made on our behalf, we are led to express our love for others by sharing and giving. That's exactly what the congregation at Jones Chapel United Methodist Church has done this Christmas season. On Tuesday afternoon, December 21, 2009, church members gathered at the church at 2267 Jones Chapel road to prepare Christmas dinners to share with the community. Christmas dinners consisting of country ham, turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, green beans, potatoes, rolls and dessert were delivered throughout the community and beyond. Bro. Mike Moon, pastor, stated that a total of 65 meals were served, with 35 being delivered by church members. Other Christmas activities at Jones Chapel this year included the annual Christmas dinner and program, and delivery of Christmas presents to the Methodist Children's home at Versailles Kentucky. Merry Christmas, to one and all from Jones Chapel United Methodist Church! -Terry Partin 2009-12-23 09:44:04 | Comments | Printable version

Wants Jesus of Nazareth in birthdays list To ColumbiaMagazine.com: December 25th. From most accounts, Jesus Christ of Nazareth was born on this date. This is the reason we have this date marked. And the reason for the season. Do you know the date Biblically? I looked ahead at the birthdates and on the 25th his name wasn't there, and it should be.
