Here’s a controversy we don’t get to have every year, just every 6th year or so. December 25th falls on Sunday this year. The argument is that cancelling services gives church staff a break and allows them to spend time with their families. Maybe it’s a generational thing and I’m from a previous one but… my family has always known where to find me on Sunday morning. Maybe it’s because my dad was an independant, fundamentalist, premillennial Baptist and we were at church every time the doors were opened; Sunday morning, Sunday night, Wednesday night, revival, cottage prayer meeting, etc. I would no sooner cancel church services on Christmas than I would on Easter Sunday. To me that makes it extra special. There are some folks that only come to church on Easter and Christmas so that cancellation eliminates 50% of their attendance for the year. Maybe I’m an old grouch but in this case I feel like being an old grouch for Jesus.
