Northern Atlantic Fellowship Newsletter		The GBNAF News December 2004

Hello,

Merry Christmas, and welcome to the first full issue of The GBNAF News.

We hope your holiday season is a joyful rememberance of the hope, love and peace that Jesus Christ has brought!

May we keep him warmly in our hearts throughout our celebrations, contemplating; "His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." (Isaiah 9:6)

Inside this edition of GBNAF News, you will find updates on what's happening around our NAF; links to different pages on our website, timely reminders, and hopefully you'll find it a useful tool for communicating information about YOU - our family of NAF Churches, working together in our Lord's service.

In the future months, we hope to bring you ministry resources, and host a one-stop-shopping web location (www.gbnaf.org) to share encouragement, as well as ministry materials to assist each of us, as we carry the Gospel throughout the Northern Atlantic US.

It is our desire to serve you with encouragement, unity, and networking within our Northern Atlantic Fellowship, in order to enhance your ability to obey the Great Commission.

Happy Holidays!

Peace.
