Christmas Pages From The Past

I thought since I donot put a link back to the Christmas Pages on my website, Rockingham Memories,  after the Christmas season, I would put them here. That way, if you want to refer back to them and read some of the stories contained therein, you will be able to at your convenience.....not just at Christmas.

The following link is to Rockingham Remembered Christmas Pages:

Christmas Memories From You

I received an idea from friend Donna Tuthill for this addition to my blog. 

In the Comment section below, please add any short memories, stories, etc. that you may remember from years gone by. I am sure all remember different events from Christmases of yesterday that could be shared here. I will post a link to this post on Facebook and see if we can get some memories of Christmas flowing.

I Believe in Christmas

I Believe in Christmas
 
I Believe that Jesus is the reason why
There’s Christmas Day.
I Believe the infant Child of Mighty God
Lay on the hay.
 
I Believe that shepherds saw, up in the sky,
The Heavenly Host ~
To praise Him high.
I Believe!  I Believe!
 
I Believe the eastern wise men traced a star
And bowed their knees.
And, I know that, in her heart, His mother knew
He would be King!
 
Time was split, a plan engaged designed to bring
The heart of man
To God again,
With upraised hands.  I Believe!
 
Every time I see the scenes of Christmas Day
Or hear the songs,
I know the Way
Lies in the Child
Of Christmas Day!
 
I Believe!!
I Believe!!!

Hope You Will Join This Board

After I did away with my Rockingham Forums Board, I figured that would be the end of messing with forums. But one of my participants over the years in the Forum Board sent me an email requesting that I join his board.

After viewing it I decided I would add his board to my website. Rev Thurston Hill from Kershaw, SC is the guy I am talking about. His board is called "The Preacher's Christian Board". Now Thurston doesn't care about adding politics, discussions on war or sports on his board....and that is fine with me. I know over the years when you discuss politics, you can get into a lot of heated arguments plus the fact that most of the time you will not change anyone's minds about their political beliefs. 

So, his board is for anyone that wants to have prayer requests, tell stories, poems, light-hearted entertainment. I think he has something here. After all, with all the junk going on in the world today, it is nice to see a board dedicated to the good in people.

I noticed that some from my former board have already joined with us on Thurston's board.

If you want a board that makes you feel good and don't have to worry about others posting vulgar or ugly items, this is the board for you.
