These stories are about Amish women and men making their way through hard times and good times during the Christmas season. Each story is unique, as unique as each of the six authors, as unique as every person who reads the stories. The hope is everyone will find something that encourages and blesses, something that gives fresh life, renewed faith and good cheer. "The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has never been able to put it out" (John 1:5). Froliche Weihnachten Merry Christmas to all
