Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

The Northwest United Methodist Foundation is now Faith Foundation Northwest! This video from Christmas 2020 features Foundation staff in outdoor scenes across the northwest delivering the following message.

Tom: Hi.  This is Tom Wilson from the Northwest United Methodist Foundation.  Sara, Julia, Heidi, Denise, David and I want to share a short message with you as we journey through the Advent season.  

Sara: Though the temperatures are getting colder and the nights are getting longer, our faith is persistent. We share a patient expectation for the arrival of light and hope.

Heidi: We have much to be grateful for this year, especially for the medical personnel, retailers, educators, food service workers, first responders, and many others who’ve worked hard to keep us safe and make our lives as normal as possible.   

Julia: We’re thankful for communities of faith like yours who have continued to care for people, whether that’s been with masks and from a safe distance, or online.

David: We’re thankful for our pastors and laity who have adaptively become technological experts, providing effective and inspirational leadership through virtual gatherings of worship and fellowship.

Tom: We are grateful for you.  Thank you for your continued witness to God’s truth that despite circumstances, peace, hope, joy, and love will prevail.  So, from our Foundation family to yours, have a safe, healthy and meaningful holiday. We wish you all the best this Advent.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
