Photo by Andrew Bailey Health Central welcomed the 1st baby of the New Year on Jan. 1 at 4:03 p.m. Parents Nicole Riviere (pic- tured with the baby) and Michael Douglas are thrilled to announce the birth of Sanna Imani Riviere Dou- glas. Labor and Delivery nurse Dolores Buchanan presented the baby's mother with a new copy of 'Dr. Seuss's ABC,' a gift from Reading Reindeer. Each baby born at Health Central during 2006 will receive a new book through donations given to 'The West Orange Times' holiday book drive. Reading Reindeer surpasses -The community responded with 3,544 new books and donations of $580 for the annual literacy drive sponsored by 'The West Orange Times. By Kathy Aber Wrapping up its eighth season last * week, Reading Reindeer was delight- ed with its readership support. New businesses and civic groups joined faithful followers who have given to The West Orange Times holiday book drive annually since 1998. Perhaps the best news of all this sea- son came in a report from the Migrant Early Education team at Orange Coun- ty Public Schools. Dr. Debra Allen, senior administrator for OCPS Mi- grant Education programs, reported that because of the books given out each year through Reading Reindeer, migrant families "now have a library in their homes." When the Times started this holi- day book drive eight years ago, it was focused on starting libraries for chil- dren who had no books to read at home. It's hard to believe there are homes in West Orange County with no chil- dren's books, but teachers consistently tell us this is a common occurrence. For its support of and help to mi- grant children, the Orange County Mi- grant Youth Aisociahion and,,the Or- ange County Public Schools Migrant Education Program honored the Times and its Reading Reindeer literacy awareness program in November with the Bert E. Roper Humanitarian Award for 2005. There are always surprises con- nected with the book drive. A national account manager with Houghton Mifflin kicked off this year's drive with a donation of more than 200 books. Another special delivery was from a neighborhood group. The Estates of Windermere organized a children's holiday run with a charity aspect ded- icated to Reading Reindeer. The youngsters were asked to bring a Reading Reindeer book donation as part of their race commitment and were given commemorative race T- shirts featuring the Reading Reindeer logo. This neighborhood group col- lected more than 150 books. The Filutowski Cataract and Lasik Institute in MetroWest also donated more than 150 books to a collection drive sponsored by the West Orange Chamber of Commerce. Ocoee High School wowed every- one at the Times with its book collec- tion of more than 1,500 new books. Thanks to the faculty, staff and stu- dents for this overwhelming effort. goal for 2005 Ocoee students helped further by la- beling each book with a Reading Rein- deer bookplate. One Winter Garden couple has been especially faithful in supporting Read- ing Reindeer. Their cash donation has been the first contribution to arrive every year since 1998. This year's largest cash donation, $250, came in from J. Richard Watson Construction Company in Ocoee. And a Winter Garden book distrib- utor, Bargain Books and More, put together a donation of 300 books for the drive. Each and every year, Reading Rein- deer has been fortunate to be able to rely on local civic groups and non- profits, including the Windermere and Winter Garden Rotary clubs, the West Orange Junior Service League, the British Heritage Society, the AARP chapter in Winter Garden and the Ladies Auxiliary of VFW Post 4305 in Winter Garden. Churches and church groups have also been generous donors. Preschool classes at St. Luke's United Methodist and Windermere Union, students at Foundation Academy and women's circles and Sunday school classes at First United Methodist of Winter Gar- den are consistently among the donors. And there are many individuals who support the drive each year, as well as many anonymous donors. "- West Orange County headlines for the last 6 months of the year highlight highway improvements, new shopping center plans, a library opening, hurricane relief efforts and more. By Amy Quesinberry The West Orange Times pub- lished a synopsis of the first half of 2005 in last week's issue. Here are the top stories of July through December of last year.

The S.C.-Battaglia Memorial Winter Garden Library opened on East Plant Street after months of delays. October Palm Lake Elementary was se- lected as a 2005 No Child Left Behind Blue Ribbon'School. Only seven other public schools in Florida received this honor. Ocoee City Commissioner Danny Howell resigned from his elected position for family rea- sons. Gary Hood was selected in a unanimous vote to fill the va- cant commission seat. Ground was broken for the first new building in downtown Win- ter Garden in decades. Plans call for a restaurant on the first floor and offices on the second. The West Orange Times' Read- ing Reindeer literacy drive start- Sed its eighth season. In the inaugural Battle for the Shield high school football game, the West Orange Warriors were victorious over the Ocoee Knights 23-0. Hurricane Wilma blew through Central Florida, causing a one- day cancellation of school and (See Review, 3A) (See Reindeer, 1B) Committees working on details for 2 local Relay For Life events By Amy Quesinberry They might be competing for the sponsorships and donations from big- name companies in the area, but the two local Relay For Life groups are championing f6r one great cause: the American Cancer Society.

CITY OF WINTER GARDEN, FLORIDA NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held before the Winter Garden City Commission on the 26th day of January, 2006 at 6:30 p.m., or as soon thereafter as possible, at Tanner Hall, located at 29 W. Gar- den Avenue, Winter Garden; Florida, in order to consider on the Second Reading the following proposed Or- dinance: Ordinance 06-06 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF WINTER GARDEN, FLORIDA, GRANTING PETITION OF SEMBLER FLORIDA, INC. FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT; CREATING AND ESTABLISHING WINTER GARDEN VILLAGE AT FOWLER GROVES COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR NAME, POWERS AND DUTIES; PROVIDING DESCRIPTION AND BOUNDARIES; PROVIDING INITIAL MEMBERS OF BOARD OF SUPERVISORS; PROVIDING SEVERABILITY AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE Interested parties may appear and be heard regarding this matter. A copy of the proposed Ordinance is avail- able in the City Clerk's office, City Hall, 251 W. Plant Street, Winter Garden, FL. Persons wishing to appeal any decision of the Commission made at the hearing referenced herein are hereby notified they may need to ensure that a verbatim record of the proceedings, including testimony and evidence, is made, upon which an appeal is to be based. Persons with disabilities who need special assistance or an interpreter to participate in this public hearing should contact the City Clerk's Office, (407) 656-4111 ext. 2297, at least 48 hours in ad- vance of the meeting. The City Commission will consider the elements of a petition filed by Sembler Florida, Inc. ("Petitioner"), to establish a uniform community development district to be known as the Winter Garden Village at Fowler Groves Community Development District ("District") as authorized and provided for in Chapter 190, Florida Statutes. The District will be a statutorily created single and special purpose local government limited to pro- viding basic systems, facilities and services to the property within its boundaries subject to the City's Com- .prehensive Plan and planning and land development regulations and conditions. The information presented at this hearing will be used to afford the Petitioner, any affected units of local government and the general pub- lic, a fair and adequate opportunity to appear and present oral and written comments.regarding the establish- ment by ordinance of the state lAw created District. The specific legal authority for the establishment of the District is in Sec- tions 190.005 190.011, Florida Statutes. The proposed land area to be served by the District is located wholly within the City of Winter Garden ("City"). The land area is bounded on the west by Winter Garden Vineland Road, on the north by resi- dential lands on the east by Highway 429, and comprises approximately 146.7 contiguous acres, more or less. The boundaries of the properties to be serviced by the District are outlined in the map depicted in this no- ' tice. There is no real property within the boundaries of the District "" which will be excluded from the jurisdiction of the District. If adopted, the ordinance will establish a uniform community development district and designate the land to be serviced by the District. A community development district is a local government created by law and es- tablished by ordinance on a proposed property subject to state and local regulatory requirements governing the lawful use and development of the property. Establishment of a uniform community development district pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, is not a development order under Chapter 380, Florida Statutes. All planning, permitting and other regulatory requirements pertaining to development within the land area will be in accordance with general and special law and applicable city ordinances; the processes herein set forth deal only with the factors to be considered in establishing a uniform community development ordinance as an al- ternative for managing and financing certain basic services for community development, all pursuant to city permits. On December 13, 2005, Petitioner officially submitted and filed its petition to the commission for review. The Commission complies with Section 190.005((2), Florida Statutes, in conducting this public hearing. The purpose of this hearing is to consider the relationship with the petition as submitted by Petitioner to the six fac- tors listed in Section 190.005(1)(e), Florida Statutes.

The donated toys were distributed to children staying in emergency shel- ters throughout Florida just in time for Christmas so that each child would have a present to open Christ- mas morning. "Thanks to our employees, we, were able to share with those chil- dren living in foster care, emergency shelters and group.homes this holi- day season," said Neil Eisner, Transeastern's president and chief operating officer. "It's not unusual for our employees to share with oth- ers who may be less fortunate, but this year they have gone above and be- yond." This year's collection resulted in nearly three times the amount of toys the homebuilder collected last year. "Transeaster Homes' participation *in our Holiday Toy and Gift Drive demonstrates the company and its employees' ongoing support and strong commitment to the Children's Home Society of Florida," said Dave Bundy, the organization's president and CEO. "As one of our best cor- porate citizens, Transeastern Homes accelerates our mission to provide solutions for children and families throughout Florida." In addition to Transeastern's par- ticipation in CHS's gift drive, the company also donates a portion of proceeds from its priority launch sales events, giving a percentage of each home sold at the events.

Home invaders strike 4 locations An after-Christmas home-inva- sion spree in West Orange County left one victim dead and another severely pistol-whipped. Police sus- pect two young black males, as yet uncaught, were responsible for at least three of the four invasions on Tuesday, Dec. 27. The first took place shortly be- fore 8:30 p.m. in the 700 block of Ly- man Avenue in Ocoee. Two black males approached a 30-year-old man working on his car parked on the street. One of the suspects pointed a semi-automatic handgun in the- man's face and pulled him from the car. The suspects threatened to kill him if he shouted and demanded that he reveal what valuables he had in his home. A suspect was heard to say, "Kill him," and the suspect pointing the gun put it close to the victim's face and pulled the trigger. Fortunately, the weapon misfired and did not dis- charge a bullet. The victim then fled on foot and called 911. No injuries were re- ported in this incident. The suspect descriptions are as follows: .,* young black male, 5'8" with a slim build and wearing a black hpoded sweat shirt, dark denim shorts and dark shoes. black male, 5'10", with a slim build and wearing gray-black-and- t white camouflage pants, a dark navy. hooded sweat shirt and dark shoes. There was no information on the driverof the suspect \ hicle, a new- er model Nissan or Toyota. four- door, dark gray or silver with tinted windows and in mint condition. The second incident took place just before 10 p.m. in Winter Garden at the West Point Villas near West Colonial Drive. Benny Rodriquez was smoking a cigarette outside a residence in the gated complex when he was attacked by two black males dressed in black hooded sweat shirts. At gunpoint, they attempted to force Rodriquez into the residence where he was staying but gave up when they realized he didn't speak English. They stole his cell phone. The car in this incident was de- scribed as a late-model silver Mit- subishi Galant sedan with tinted windows. And one of the suspects was thought to be approximately 5'2". The third attack of the evening proved fatal. Shawn Mulkin, 44, was shot and killed around 11 p.m. at the Hawthorne Groves Apartments at the corner of Good Homes Road and Old Winter Garden Road near Ocoee. According to the Orange County Sheriff's Office, the victim's wife had just arrived from picking up her son from his job.'The victim was standing outside of his apartment smoking a cigarette when he was suddenly approached by a black male who pointed a gun at him and placed him on the ground as the oth- er suspect approached from the oth- er side of the building and entered the apartment to rob the residents inside. Mulkin chased the suspects as they left the apartment and was shot by one of them. He died at the scene. The final home invasion, which : may or may not have been the work' of the same two young males, took place at 11:35 p.m. at 11:34 p.m. at 2229 E. Welch Road near Apopka, Where a victim was pistol-whipped. The suspects fled. Anyone with information about, these crimes is asked to call Crime- Line at 407-423-TIPS.

The needs not be afraid but more informed and will- speak up to the misinformation coming from the newspaper's editorial page. Pam Tucker Orange County Charles Bronson, Florida Agriculture and Consumer Services commissioner, is urging consumers to get some background information on health clubs prior to sign; ing a contract. Many people put losing weight and getting into shape at the top of their New Year's to-do list. But unless they do some research in advance, the only thing they may lose is money. State law provides some protections for consumers, and they should be aware of what those are. The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services administers the Health Studio Law, which spells out the rights and responsibilities of the gyms and consumers. It also provides some recourse against health clubs that do not follow the law. All health clubs are required to register with the department's Division of Consumer Services, and many must also post a bond that can be used to repay members if the facility goes out of business. In 2005, the department collected $67,000 in fines against health clubs for various violations of the Health Studios Law, including registration problems and ad- vertising. There are 1,720 health studios registered with the department, an increase of 379 more than last year. One hundred and 49 clubs went out of business during. the same time period. "Joining a health club can be a positive but costly en- / deavor, and it's important that people know as much as possible about a particular facility before entering into a contract," Bronson said. "They need to know ex- actly what they are getting for their money and what steps they can take to seek redress if something goes wrong." The law provides consumers with the right to cancel a contract for certain reasons, including cancellation within three days of signing a contract, exclusive of holidays and weekends, but it must be done in writing; if the facility moves more than five miles away from the original location and fails to provide within 30 days a facility of equal quality located within five miles; and if a person becomes physically unable to use most of the services for which they contracted, until the disability ends. Bronson also recommends consumers follow these tips before signing a contract: Call the help line at 800- 435-7352 to make sure the health studio is registered and to check its complaint history. Find out if the studio has posted a bond with the department as most that collect fees in advance are required to do. Prior to joining, ask about the club's cancellation policy should you move or become physically unable to use the facility. Before signing, visit the club during the hours you intend to use it to determine whether it is overcrowded and the Equipment you plan to use is available. Find out if any of the services offered require an additional fee. Bronson said it is important to read proposed con- tracts thoroughly and make sure you get all promises made by the club personnel in writing. Ask questions to make sure you understand the terms of your membership. The wrong message about the septic tank issue Editor: The editorial staff of the Orlando.Seniinel displayed irresponsible journalism ith the ill-concei ed editori- al [last week on the septic tank issue]. They obviously did not investigate the facts, nor did they even do simple math. The bottom line is that there is no proof whatsoe er that a molecule of nitrogen from a septic tank in West Orange County makes it into the 'Wekiva River. Where does their proof come from? Answer: from some study done in an area hundreds of miles north of here. which has no relevancy whatsoever to our area. In reference to the math, they say only 583 tanks will fail in a year. There are approximately 60.000 tanks iden- tified. So it means that a brand ne" tank installed today will last 102 years (60,000 divided by 583). Where did this fuzzy math come from? They say $4.32 million will take care of 583 tanks.: his'equates to $7,400 each. The proven initial cost is between $12,000 and $15,000. In addition, there is maintenance that costs an estimated $500 to $1,000 a year. They are either igno- rant of these facts or choose to distort them. SYes, it will cost at least a billion dollars to implement this crazy rule. That money comes from individuals. The state Department: of Health has started the rumor, and the Sentinel spreads it, that the state will pick up a sig- nificant amount of the costs. No one can guarantee that the state of Florida, which operates in the red now, will dole out money to assist affected homeowners. We, the opposition:to this bureaucratic nightmare,, have studied the issue carefully. We are armed with.the facts and hate scientific experts on our side. We citi- zens are not "rabble rousers", as the Sentinel calls us. We are trying to prevent a billion-dollar boondoggle that is set to affect thousands of Central Florida citizens.

Many of the best mortgages deals become available when lenders are competing for new business and sellers are com- peting with a smaller bu er pool. You just hate to know how to keep the costs down in order to counter the higher in- lerest rates. One of the best tricks is the buy- down. In a buy-down, a fee is paid at the closing to get a lower interest rate. In a soft market, an anxious seller may be lured into paying all or part of the buy-down. Another approach is to get the seller to pay some of the closing costs, thus lowering the amount of cash a buyer needs to close The buyer can frequently use the seller's costs as a write-off. (Check with your your tax advisor). If the market is softening due to ns- ing or higher rates, the price itself be- comes an area where a buyer may be able to save a lot of money on a house through some hard negotiating. Low prices mean lower loan amounts, so don't be discouraged by higher rates -use them to your advantage If you would like to talk further about buying or selling real estate. please contact Libby Tomyn at Cen- ury 21 Professional Group.

I0 =NMI i THE West W Winter Garden, Florida Thursday, January 5, 2006 a e e k fl&L1 ape r Powered by community, Reading Reindeer delivers The Migrant Early Intervention Program of Orange County Public Schools holds monthly family activity nights at the West Oaks Mall Community Room to encourage parent-child interaction. The Rangel family of Winter.Garden was one of the families participating in a family game night and pizza party just before Thanksgiving. Mother and father, Maria and Rigoberto, and sister, Giselle, watch as Celeste (left) holds up a bead she is about to add to the play table. Each child attending the party received a new book from the Reading Reindeer drive. Proudly posing for a photo on the last day of school before the holidays, students at Ocoee High School hold up part of the school's donation of 1,567 new books. Students also helped out by labeling each book with a Reading Reindeer bookplate sticker. (Continued from front page) Moreover, each year the Reading Reindeer distribution list grows. This year's the list of beneficiaries includes: Play & Learn Day School in Winter Garden; migrant students in the Early Intervention'Program of Orange Coun- ty Public Schools; students at Mollie Ray Elementary School; children served by the Maxey Community Cen- ter; residents at the Center For Drug- free Living: Reach Out and Read at the Winter Garden Children's Health Center; children served by the Chris- tian Service Center; Toys For Tots in Ocoee and Winter Garden; pre-kinder- garten and Headstart students at Max- ey Elementary School; and new ba- bies at Health Central hospital. With the tremendous community re- sponse this year, Reading Reindeer was able to add the Toys For Tots drives in Oakland and Windermere to its list of recipients. In addition to community donations, the Times received a surprise delivery from Give Kids the World Village. The Kissimmee charity rerouted part of a shipment of several thousand Golden Books to the Times office, and this year many of the Reading Reindeer children received two books. Reading Reindeer must thank the local libraries, Southwest, Winder- mere, West Oaks and Winter Garden, and the West Orange Chamber for serving as drop-off locations for books. Reading Reindeer could not succeed without this network of helpers. With cash donations, Reading Rein- deer will be able to continue giving a new copy of Dr. Seuss's ABC to each baby born at Health Central during 2006. The Times initiated the Reading Reindeer campaign eight years ago to refocus the West Orange community on the importance of reading to make readers even more aware of how the ability to read and write is inter- twined with every aspect of life. It af- fects health, employment and day-to- day living. Reading is a key to suc- ceeding. It has been heartwarming to see how many groups and individuals in the community have been drawn to the annual book drive. Giving books has become a West Orange County tradi- tion. While there is no exact way to mea- sure how a book will touch a child, the Reading Reindeer staff is hoping that nightly bedtime stories are becoming another community tradition. Daily we all affect the next genera- tion. One child will grow up to be a scientist and another an artist. Reading to children and improving their liter- acy skills is the first step in putting a happier ending on their lives as adults. Thanks for supporting Reading Reindeer and joining the Times' com- mitment to improving community lit- eracy. The West Orange Chamber of Commerce has been a great commu- nity resource for Reading Reindeer. The Chamber served as a drop- off location for book donations and sent out repeated notices to mem- bers requesting books for this year's drive. In addition, Chamber mem- bers were asked to bring a new book to the December Business After Hours held Dec. 15 at Veranda Park. Chamber President Stina D'Uva (right) and Krista Compton hold up some of the books. Dr. Janinna Torres, a pediatrician at the Winter Garden Children's Health Center, reads a book to Valerie Perkins, 2, during her annual checkup in October. This is the 6th straight year that the center is re- ceiving books from Reading Reindeer. Doctors at the center give each child under 6 a new book when they come for their annual checkups. By surpassing its book goal this year, Reading Reindeer will be able to fully support the Reach Out and Read program at WGCHC, which will give out more than 1,200 books in 2006. Children in The Estates of Windermere community on McKinnon Road gathered Dec. 12 to compete in the 2nd annual Jingle Bell Jog, this year to benefit Reading Reindeer. They collected more than 100 books for this year's drive. The race T-shirts featured the Reading Reindeer logo on the back. Above, resident Lisa Hammons pins on a race number for 1 of the runners. For the 8th straight year, Reading Reindeer gave more than 400 books to the Holiday Toys For Tots in Need drive sponsored by the Ocoee Police Department. Officer Tom Maroney, OPD community affairs officer, and Officer Jim Berish, the department's resource officer at Ocoee Middle School, picked up 4 books in time for the department's distribution on Dec. 16.

Olympia High soccer pushes win streak to 6 The Olympia High School varsity boys soccer team began clicking in De- cember, going 6-1-1 with a six-game winning streak. The month began with a scoreless tie at district rival Dr. Phillips in the annual Friendship Cup. Titan goal- keeper Jerry Hatsady made several out- standing saves to hold off DP. The Pan- thers, though, were awarded the cup on penalty kicks. Olympia followed up the tie with a 3-0 loss to Freedom and fell to 2-5-1 on the season. Coach Fraser Allan made a few ad- justments after the Freedom game that resulted in a string of victories. The Ti- tans hosted Evans and struggled early until Jeff Goldstein opened the scor- ing with an 18-yard shot. Jon Holt added a goal with a header on a cor- ner kick. Goldstein scored again on the Tro- jans with a'20-yard strike. Titans Scot- ty McGarigal, Colby Rainwater and Andrew Duncanson played solid de- fense to preserve the 6-3 win. Olympia then hosted top 10-ranked Edgewater and upset the Eagles 4-1 with goals scored by Thiago Azeve- do, Kyle Stanforth and McGarigal (2). Dominating defensive performances by goalkeeper Radford Parker and de- fenders Drew Schiavone, Norman Lamberty, Greg Mercado, Holt and Goldstein held Edgewater to just one goal. The West Orange Warriors were the next to succumb to Olympia's stifling defense, which helped produce anoth- er 4-1 victory. Azevedo and Tomas Contreras accounted for 3 goals, while McGarigal added another. The Titans kept their streak alive by knocking off Colonial 3-0. Goldstein opened the scoring from 18 yards out. Teammates Diogo Ferreira, Steven Otto and Tyson Prior helped Duncan- son and Stanforth each score a goal.

The Titans were major con- tributors in Orange County's first-ever win at the tournament by beating Semi- nole and Lake Brantley high schools, both by a score of 3-2. Goals by Rain- water (2) and Aron Hotalen propelled Olympia over Seminole. Against Lake Brantley, Rainwater scored on an Azevedo corner kick, followed by goals by Holt and Azevedo.

Health Central docs raise a racquet for School Nurse Program With all the cheering, shouting and laughing, it may not have been as decorous as Wimbledon, but the Fall Tennis Extravaganza 2005 at Isleworth Tennis Center drew pros and amateur players into enthusi- astic tennis sorties to raise money for Health Central Foundation's School Nurse Program. Amateur players donated $250 for the opportunity to match rac- quets and wits with tennis pros Dick Stockton, Betsy Nagelsen- McCormack, Tom Gullikson and Jamea Jackson, as well as country club tennis directors from across the state. Health Central surgeon Dr. Jorge Florin and his wife, Tami, and in- ternist Dr. Richard Nathanson took to the courts at Isleworth in the charity tournament. The event raised another $30,000 for the School Nurse Program, which will be added to the more than $40,000 raised at the Spring Tennis Extra- vangza. Health Central Foundation pro- vides funds to retain and place reg- istered nurses in West Orange County public schools, where the nurse is often the only healthcare provider seen by children of low-in- come families. The Foundation funds nurses in 32 schools that serve more than 40,000 students. Players and sponsors were treat- ed to a cocktail reception at the Isleworth home of John and Au- drey Ruggieri. Several companies and individuals sponsored the char- ity event, including Orlando Leisure Magazine, Westgate Foun- dation, Tavistock, Greenspoon, Marder law firm, Alfredo's of Rome, Isleworth Realty and Tup- perware. The event included a clinic by fitness author Dr. Jim Loehr and dissolved into frivolity with.a jai alai tennis competition that pitted the pros against each other in rotation while spectators bet on the outcome with play money. WESH TV sports anchor Greg Fox manned the microphone and the line judge's perch during the jai alai buffoonery, where he lobbed witty commentary that kept the crowd roaring. The phony dough spectators amassed was used to pur- chase a variety of items from an on-court auction that concluded the day. : ., ... ,'a ,. .P. .. - "- i .. .

Sunday School 9:30am for all ages with childcare. www.ascension-orlando.org It has been a wonderful time as we have come ' through another Christmas season, with cooler temper- atures and lots of holiday busyness all around us. It is a time when we all seem a little kinder, more willing to suffer long lines and grouchy people in the stores, and for most, a time to not only see the blessing of God in our lives, but to see the hurt in those all around us and respond to it as best we can. The Christmas season seems to bring into sharper focus the abundance of His blessings. The beauty of lighted trees, ornaments hang- ing from every lamp post and business around town, and all the houses around the city decorated so brightly makes me want Christmas to last all year long. The beauty of it all is that it can. In John 10:10, Jesus says, "...I have come that you may have life, abundant life!" You see, friends, abundance is not measured by God the way many of us measure it. It has nothing to do with the size of your home, car, or bank account. It is INTERDENOMINATIONAL CHRIST COMMUNITY CHURCH 5425 South Apopka-Vineland Rd. 9:45 AM, Sunday School, 11:00 AM, Worship Service. www.christcommunitychurch.cc 407-909-9495 JEWISH CONGREGATION SINAI, CLERMONT 635 West SR. 50, Ste.

Russell Belcher 8:00 Brief Traditional, 9:00 Contemporary, 10:00 Sunday School, 11:00 Tradition- measured by the absolute love that God showed us when, on a day that we celebrate as Christmas, God Himself gave the biggest, most precious gift ever giv- en. He began in a tiny manger in Bethlehem to set into motion the earthly life that would be sacrificed for us, all of us who accept His great offer of love, Many people today have tried sincerely to unite all mankind, regardless of their respective beliefs. "Hap- py Holidays" has been used to replace "Merry Christ- mas" this year more than any I can remeinber, in essence to make us all one big happy family. Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to God except through Me." There is only one way to have that relationship with God; by believing in the Son. .Then, we can experience the true meaning of this Christmas season all year long. Jesus IS the reason for the season! From the believers at First Baptist Winter Garden ADV. al, 5:00pm TNT Youth Group, 7:00pm Contemporary & Gospel. OCOEE OAKS UMC 201 S.
