CHRISTMAS IN PARIS?
By Ruth A. Douthitt
Christmas in Paris sounds romantic, doesn’t it? For two newlyweds separated by the military it was exactly that: A chance for a romantic honeymoon. The only issue would be my passport. I only had three weeks to meet by husband, but usually passports took six weeks. If I don’t have that passport, I can’t go, I prayed. Please, Lord. Make this happen. Yeah, I know. People all over the world were praying to God for help in a time of war, or starvation, or government oppression and here I was praying to go to Paris at Christmas. Sigh. But we were married back in July, and didn’t have much money, so we really hadn’t had much of a honeymoon. Scott had left one week after the wedding to board the aircraft carrier. My boss at work was very understanding and gave me the time off even though I was a rather new employee. My coworkers were so supportive and gave me books on how to speak French. Of course my family was thrilled for us. But I needed that passport. Every day after work I checked the mailbox of my apartment…every day for two weeks. Nothing. No passport, no Paris… Learn More About Ruth http://thedragonforest.homestead.com/HomePage.html

NOT MY WILL …
By Burton Voss
It may be his grandfather’s last Christmas and he deserves the very best present the teenager can afford. Grandpa has always been the underpinning for Chris and his mom, and the right gift will show him how much he is loved and appreciated. Chris has found just the right present … or was he led to it?

A KIDNAPPED CHRISTMAS
By Mabry and John Perry
It’s Christmas time in Texas in 1963. Cyrus’s father has just passed away leaving his mother with bills to pay, small children to feed and himself the “man of the house”. He swallows his pride as he accepts work from an uncle who is not only Catholic and married to a Hispanic woman, but also has a colored son. This doesn’t sit well with Cyrus’s fellow klan members and what he’s asked to do to prove his loyalty might be more than he can bear.

CHRISTMAS AT GRANDMA’S
By Carol Farris
Growing up in a small village in rural Minnesota, and living next door to my grandparents both contributed to all of our Christmases being spectacular. As I reminisced, it occurred to me that the actual Christmas presents were of little importance in my wonderful memories.
