Thoughts on Christmas Eve

I just returned from Christmas Eve service at a beautiful mountain chapel here in Colorado. For whatever reason Christmas Eve brings out a lot of emotion for me, and this year was made even more poignant by a special guest at the service. Two years ago the pastor introduced us to a local Marine just back from a tour in Iraq. This year, the Marine was welcomed back under very different circumstances. In the course of a deployment to Afghanistan he suffered grievous injuries from an IED and lost both his legs. During a very difficult recovery this past year he made a commitment to walk into the chapel this Christmas Eve…and he did…to a standing ovation from all of us there. What a demonstration of the spirit of the season and a heartfelt expression of the triumph of the human spirit over adversity. This Christmas Eve I give thanks for all the gifts and joys of my life, and I also give thanks for the service of this young man and the lessons we can learn from his perseverance and heart.

At Ambajam the way we give back is through our “Cuddle-up Campaign.” In the spirit of the season, for every entry we get in this final day of our 12 Days of Christmas we will donate a blanket to a local non-profit helping vulnerable, at-risk children.

We would love to share the warmth and comfort of our blankets with children in need so please help spread the word and have your friends and family participate in today’s contest.

Good luck and thank you!
