Though the snow may be difficult to deal with at times, it definitely brings a bit of extra beauty and helps me feel a little more in the Christmas spirit."Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those who have his good will!"
Despite the busyness of the holiday, please remember that God's has His good will in mind for you. I am praying that each of you find the Shalom that God intended with the birth of the Messiah.
The lights, music and snow aren't the only indicators of the season. The annual Christmas break practice load brings a different type of anticipation. In other sports, you may expect a little break from the work. In our sport however, the training ramps up a bit. These next two weeks are great times to take the great conditioning work you have been doing and build on it with more technique work and laser focused intensity. These two weeks are some of the most important training of the season.
Here are the details of practice times, etc.:
