Happy New Year!

From the Rev. Iain Baxter, All Saints Chiang Mai

Christmas Day at All Saints
.

Dear Friends,

.
What a wonderful Christmas!  We had around seventy people at our Christmas Morning Eucharist, and good numbers for our Christmas Eve morning service, and for Midnight Mass!  You can watch the video of the Christmas Morning Eucharist here!

Then following the Christmas service, forty people joined us for Christmas lunch, with the best turkeys in Chiang Mai!  Thanks to the Chase family and all the others who organised and brought the food!

New Year’s Eve Party
 ..
Thank you again to all those who assisted in moving me into my new house.  Particularly Ken, Emily, Pamela, Pat, Julia, Richard, Jufil, Gene, Kong, Rachapol, Arianna, Chris, and Warren, and thanks to all the others who also offered their services!
 .
Everyone at All Saints is invited to a house-warming/New Year’s Eve Party at my new house on New Year’s Eve, beginning at 8 pm.  Just drinks and nibbles, so eat first!
 .

If you don’t know the way to All Saints, directions can be found on the Where and When page.  Most people get to hear about us via the internet or by word of mouth, so please feel free to pass on this email to others.  All are welcome to join us as we share the presence of the Christ of Christmas in our lives!  We hope to see you soon and that you will enjoy worshiping with us, meanwhile, have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!

God bless,

Iain
