Christmas Issue - 23 December 2005
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light.
Those who lived in a land of deep darkness - on them light has shone.
For a child has been born for us, a son given to us.
Authority rests upon his shoulders
And he is named Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
[Isaiah 9:2-6]
