There are those who have spent thousands (even hundreds of thousands) of dollars to prepare for what they believe to be the end of the world on December 21, 2012.  I would like to assure you that Jesus Without The Junk will be in full force beginning January 1, 2013.  We (nor you or anyone else for that matter) are not going anywhere… just yet.  This world is not going to end.  First, I have too much to share and tell you about a living Savior.  Most of the time it burns within me so much so that sometimes I would just like to throw up a tent on the side of the road somewhere and teach and preach to you about how to gain the victory daily while you are alive.  I have told many over the years that others can only be helped just so much unless the one helping has experienced the same issues and has come out the victor.  So don’t pack your bags just yet!

Lastly, I want to wish you a belated and heartfelt Merry Christmas because Jesus truly is the reason we celebrate this season.  I and the other ministry members were part of a huge mission outreach through First Baptist of Carolina Beach this past December 9, 2012 and a great deal of money was raised to help bring Christmas to the children of Pleasure Island specifically.  That was a present for me.

In all truth, I want to confirm to you that we all will be here on January 1, 2013 ready and willing to go and do what God has called us to do through this ministry, no matter how small or how big.  We serve a faithful and true God.

Thank you for your vote of confidence in this outreach.  You have been uplifting to Katie, who has been writing articles for the Gazette the last six months, and me when I feel certain we have both wondered if our perspective touched anyone.

Happy New Year and God bless us everyone!

Molly
