A blessed Christmas Eve to all. It is fitting that the Nativity set you see today is from Haiti. I offer it in memory of the over 300,000 people who died in the 2010 Haitian earthquake. Three Wartburg Seminary students were there on that January 12. Ben Larson died in the earthquake while singing, "O Lamb of God, you bear the sin of all the world away. Eternal peace with God you made. God's peace to us we pray." Renee Splichal Larson writes about death and resurrection, about the suffering and faith of the Haitian people. Today we know that in Christ new life comes forth.
