Brent, I have read you for years and find much in your ruminations that resounds with my childhood memories as well as my 50+ years of adult life. Your column, "A Little Light," is a perfect reading for Advent. May I print it (about 40 copies) as an insert into one of our December Sunday bulletins? I am from a small Lutheran church in northwestern Wisconsin and although we're not big huggers during the sharing of the peace, we strive to be friendly and we welcome all to stay for coffee after worship. Keep writing, Mr. Olson!

Hi Brent, Congratulations on your trousers! Happy to hear you are feeling better. I am a member of Trinity, but regrettably had to miss your speaking appearance. You are correct - they are a wonderful congregation of warm and truly kind hearted people. Thank you for your thoughts on the importance of Advent. The importance of preparing for the true reasons of the season, not just about preparing for what we put under the tree. Merry Christmas to you and your wonderful family!
