Christmas meal with a difference.....

There is a local Asian retired lunch time group that meet in our buildings weekly. Each month they share a meal together and today they were having a Christmas lunch. I was invited to join them and to give them a Christmas message which was translated into Guajarati.
I shared with them my favourite Christmas word - Emmanuel - which means God with us and spoke of the reality of Jesus as God in human form, coming to earth to live among His people.
The food was great too, no roast turkey but a good selection of traditional spicy Indian dishes!
