Dear FCFM Friends,

    As you all make the final preparations for your Christmas celebration, on behalf of all of us here at the FCFM, I would like to wish you a very Merry
Christmas!  Mrs. Kelm and I have been so blessed by each of you through this Outreach Ministry, and we are looking for great things to come in the new
year!  We sincerely pray that you all have a wonderful, and safe Christmas!

    We will be having our usual personal Christmas on Christmas eve.  Kimberly bakes a cake, we read scriptures, and have a Birthday party for Jesus.  Then
on Christmas morning, we will be heading west for around 120 miles to go to spend time with Kimberly's parents and other family members.  I am praying
that the weather is nice for the trip.  If you have been following the news, you will already know that Minnesota has been featured nationally for snow
fall, and extreme cold temperatures.  This is the time of year when the differences between Minnesota and Florida are very clear!  LOLL

    Those of you who will be preaching on Christmas, our prayers will be with you for a wonderful message of the gospel of Jesus, and pray that you are
blessed as much as I am sure that you will be a blessing to others.  For those of you who are planning special time with family and friends, we will pray
that you are blessed with the love and comfort born by the knowledge of what Christmas truly represents to those of us who are Christian.

    Well once again, Merry Christmas!!!
 

Respectfully Yours in Christ,
Pastor James Kelm, Kimberly Kelm, and the FCFM family

Dear Pastor James and Kim, thank you so much for your Christmas wishes and please know that there are many people out here who think of you and pray for you often. I just read your December Newsletter, and it is amazing all of the directions which the FCFM ministry is headed in serving the Kingdom. The FCFM Christian Institute with the audio messages will be a wonderful addition to your ministry. May God richly bless you both during this Christmas season and in the coming New Year. Blessings, always, as we seek to serve our Lord's Kingdom. Rev/Chaplain Christopher Brown, MHS

Dear Pastor James and all FCFM friends,
 
I'd like to with all of you a very Merry Christmas.  We've already had some wonderful fellowship with Christian friends, and will be spending Christmas with my family. 
 
I'll pray for safe travels for those of you who are going to be away from home for Christmas. 
 
Merry Christmas
Cindy

Dear friends,
 
    Thank you Chris and Cindy for all of your kind and encouraging words!  It means so much!!!
 
    Now I have a question, or favor to ask the members of this group.  As I said earlier, Kim and I have a quiet Birthday celebration on Christmas eve, in which we enjoy going back to a time that was less hectic, whereby we can celebrate Christmas with "the Birthday boy".  *smile*  Kim and I are fans of old time radio, and other such audio oriented entertainment.  I am trying to find free mp3 downloads of either old time radio Christmas shows, or some other kind of audio Christmas programming that I can burn onto a CD, and play while we are either eating dinner, or relaxing in the evening.  They have to be free, because we are poor.  LOLL  Does anyone know of either a web site that I can find such mp3 files for download, or do you have anything that you could E-mail me at jame...@earthlink.net?  I thank you for your help.  *smile*
 
    Again, Merry Christmas, and thank you Chris and Cindy!
 
 
Your Friend in Christ,
Pastor James Kelm

James, I love "oldies" (1950's & 60's), primarily because I am an "oldie." That said, I am afraid I have no way to help you with your request traditional Christmas music and wouldn't know an mp3 file to download if it was in front of me. If Tracey and I were any closer to Minnesota, we would enjoy spending a quiet Christmas Eve with you and Kim. Cris

Dear Chris,
 
    If you were closer to Minnesota, you would have a standing invitation to spend as much time with us as you would be able to tolerate!  *smile*
 
    And as for knowing an mp3 file...  I will have to tooter you in the fine, and often frustrating art of computers.  LOLL  See, yet another reason for you to move to Minnesota?  Did you know that we have beautiful sandy beaches, palm trees, and sun tanning weather all year around?  LOLL  Perhaps you and Tracey would enjoy visiting our botanical gardens?
 
    Ooooops...  I was lost in day dreaming once again!  LOLL
