How To Use Social Media To Advertise a Virtual Event
How to Use Social Media To Advertise a Virtual Event
Organizing a virtual event? Great! We hope you have your social media marketing toolkit ready. With billions of people, social media is where you have to be if you're looking to build attendance for your event.
Whether an in-person or an online event, promoting it on social media is a must if you want to see a packed house. Not every platform is going to get you the numbers, but that's where we will help you pick the right ones.
Aside from the fact that a lot of people use it, social media also can help achieve several of your event objectives. Brand awareness, lead generation, engagement, and sign-ups can all be achieved through social media. You just need a great campaign.
So, what are the different ways that you can use social media?
1. Organic posts
By simply creating a solid page or profile and posting content regularly on it, you can gain a lot of followers. Just so you don't run out of content, create a social media calendar with details of the format and type of content you're going to post every day and what the theme of your content will be. You can also work with platforms like vFairs, Eventcube, Almond Virtex, Hopin which will give you ideas!
2. Collaborate with your sponsors/participants
This trick works very well if you are hosting an expo or a trade show. Create content that can benefit your and your sponsors'/participants' audience and share it on both your pages or handles. Association with well-known brands can really boost your image especially if you're lesser known or relatively new.
3. Pay-per-click and video ads
Online advertising costs money but is still more cost-effective than offline advertising. So, put together an ad campaign and share it across your networks and on websites where your potential audience is active. Social media ads are very effective because they can be highly targeted and visually appealing, especially if you're using platforms like Instagram.
4. Influencer marketing
Influencer marketing is quickly emerging as one of the most reliable ways for businesses to advertise their products online. So, pick a relevant influencer and use a creative piece of content to let your audience know what's coming. Influencers typically are very active on social media, post content regularly, and as a result, have sizeable followership. Leveraging their community for your event is another viable way to use social media.
Now that you understand the different ways to use social media, remember a few things.
Make sure your profile on social media is up-to-date. That means that the link to your website, landing page for the event, and videos should be functional.
Choose your social media platform wisely. If you have visually stunning content, you might want to promote that on Instagram. Use LinkedIn if your event is industry-specific, CSR-related, or if it is a virtual team event in the office. Facebook is where you will find people of all ages and backgrounds, so use it as a filter.
Remember to personalize your content depending on the platform you are using. Image-heavy on Instagram and Facebook works better. Pointed, direct messaging is a plus on LinkedIn.
Track and measure your ads/posts. Make use of analytics provided by the social media platform because it can reveal a great deal about your campaigns.
Almond Virtex have a feature of social wall where you can see the post about the event that people have posted on their social handles.
So, there you have it. Social media tips and tricks that you can use for any type of event. Try them and keep improvising for better results. You can also try Almond Virtex: The Most Trusted and Secure Virtual Event Platform for support on your event marketing campaigns.
How Can Companies Organize A Virtual Family Day?
How Can Companies Organize A Virtual Family Day?
Studies show that companies that are more family-centric have happier and more productive employees. It is understandable that employees whose families are cared for by their companies will want to do their best.
So, how can a family-centric company connect thousands of employees and their families across the globe through a single corporate event? It may seem like a daunting task, but with the right planning and execution, your company might just be able to pull off something extraordinary!
So, here are a few simple steps to organizing the perfect virtual family day.
- Decide your reach
- Figure out a theme to make your event relevant
- Identify a suitable platform
- Finalize the duration of your event
- Have a 'WOW' factor to hook your audience
- Use gamification in virtual event platforms
- Promote your event in the right manner
1. Decide your reach
If you are an organization with thousands of employees who are spread over different geographic regions, you may have to organize more than one virtual team event. We recommend that you host multiple events because time and cultural differences cannot be ignored especially when families and little children are involved. If you can only host one event, then pick a time and reach that covers most of your employee population.
2. Figure out a relevant theme
The downside to large-scale events is picking the right theme. Superman may be big in one country but in certain others, it might be another superhero. Similarly, English may not be the preferred language for all your employees and their families. Again, making your event as 'local' as possible ensures that you receive good participation.
3. Identify a suitable platform
If you are hosting several corporate events in different regions, then you need a platform that is customizable. Not all virtual event platforms offer the same flexibility. If you are looking to make your event rustic and locally relevant, pick a 100% customizable platform like Virtex. Not only can you tweak the features to suit your needs, but you also have a support team to help with outreach and marketing.
4. Finalize the duration of your event
Virtual events can become abnormally long especially if your agenda is not relevant to the audience attending. So, decide on a duration. Get a count of how many children are attending and decide accordingly. Children have shorter attention spans, so we recommend that you stick to two hours at the most.
If you have a longer list of items to finish, then spread the event out to three or even four days with a grand finale on the last day.
5. Have a 'WOW' factor to hook your audience
It is not easy to keep children entertained. So, make sure to include several 'WOW' elements in your events. It could be a virtual magic show or a puppet show. These could take place when audience engagement is expected to lower. It could be at the end of a segment, or on the final day of your event.
6. Use gamification in virtual event platforms
Kids love games, but so do adults. Platforms like Virtex give you 100% customization to make and create games of your choice. Ensure that your participants are engaged through these games, so make them interactive and have exciting rewards ready.
7. Promote your event in the right manner
Before the actual event commences, you will need to create some buzz around it. Make use of social media promotion tools on virtual platforms. You can also use your Intranet to promote the event. Make things more relatable to your audience by featuring families of your employees in your promo videos.

Hello I'm new to science, I have always been amazed with space and the idea of how big it truly is. Thats why I decided to now look into further study more then just a hobby, and I was lucky enough to find a course that I can do which is a postgraduate in master of science (astronomy) however to start that I need to begin the undergraduate Bachelor of science(applied science).
I really do enjoy science yet I haven't done it since I've left school (8 years). and my job, at the present is working with difficult young people in custody, a job which does not relate to astronomy at all. My first unit is introduction to chemistry which I have never done, its a basic unit but I'm wonder if any one on this forum can get me started. What are the fundamental things to know? What level of math does it require on a undergraduate level? and other handy tips that will allow me to one day, have my master of astronomy.
Thanks for your help.

Meta Platforms Inc. said it would notify roughly 1 million Facebook users that their account credentials may have been compromised due to security issues with apps downloaded from Apple Inc. and Alphabet Inc.'s software stores.
The company announced Friday that it identified more than 400 malicious Android and iOS apps this year that target internet users in order to steal their login information. Meta said it informed both Apple and Google about the issue in order to facilitate removal of the apps.
Read More: What Mark Zuckerberg Revealed About His Metaverse Plans
The apps worked by disguising themselves as photo editors, mobile games or health trackers, Facebook said.
Apple said 45 of the 400 problematic apps were on its App Store and have been removed. Google removed all the malicious apps in question, a spokesperson said.
"Cybercriminals know how popular these types of apps are, and they'll use similar themes to trick people and steal their accounts and information," said David Agranovich, director of global threat disruption at Meta. "If an app is promising something too good to be true, like unreleased features for another platform or social media site, chances are that it has ulterior motives."
A typical scam would unfold, for example, after a user downloaded one of the malicious apps. The app would require a Facebook login to work beyond basic functionality, thus tricking the user into providing their username and password. Users could then, for example, upload an edited photo to their Facebook account. But in the process, they unknowingly compromised their account by giving the author of the app access.

Meta said it would be sharing tips with potential victims on how they can avoid being "re-compromised" by learning how to better spot problematic apps that pilfer credentials, whether for Facebook or other accounts. The malicious activity occurred off Meta systems, Agranovich said, adding that not all 1 million people necessarily had their passwords compromised.
(Updates with details in the sixth paragraph on how malicious apps behaved)

Corporate bosses with laser-sharp intelligence and Machiavellian tendencies are themes that Hollywood loves to exploit. And now, after the film 'American Psycho', this has spilled into the American TV entertainment world. After the show 'Billions' now we have 'Suits' where Harvey Specter makes a huge dent as a corporate lawyer through his extraordinary intelligence.
Harvey Specter is on the point, no-nonsense and result oriented boss. He has played a lot in the cut-throat field of the corporate world, and the secrets behind his success are his several mantras. We can say that the rules define the entire show.
Welcome Watch Tank and let's have a look at 10 things you can learn from Suits.
10. Study your competition
Your competition is the biggest threat that comes in the way between you and your success. Always study your competition for key traits such as demeanor, tendencies, behavior, intelligence and personality. This will enable you to understand their strong points and their pain points.
Once you know and understand your enemy or as we will call them, your competition, you can either quickly bring them down or circumvent them, if they are too dangerous. Also, when they try to bring you down, you know how to turn the tables. Let that be a lesson for all, especially those in competitive fields.
9. Reading people
Being able to read people is way more important than being able to read some books. People come with their weaknesses and their strengths, and their insecurities. This gives them their characteristics; these things define them as a being. When you read people, you come to know how to tackle them.
This protects you from any attacks and offenses from their side. Also, this can help you gain contacts. We have Harvey Specter always trying to understand his surroundings and the beings in it. It helps him stay one step ahead of everyone and manipulate them.
8. Emotions have no place in making judgements
According to Harvey, your emotions stem from your basal tendencies, while your judgments are based on your logic. Harvey once said that he is not against using emotions, but he is just against having them.
The Machiavellian and borderline psychopathic tendencies enable him to circumvent emotional responses and make intelligent choices rather than go by emotions. We can't tell now if this guy even has any emotions. Let's hope he has.
Throughout all the seasons, Harvey Specter has shown that he makes his moves based on his cold and calculated thought process.
7. Appearances matter
If you are an intelligent and charming personality, who comes packaged in goofy and lousy clothing and a messed-up way of introducing yourself, your intelligence and charm matter for nothing.
Harvey Specter usually says that one has to make sure he is in the best of his looks because people treat you the way you keep your appearance. You will never see him in a messed up clothing or lousy way of dressing. Every minute detail about his fashion and his hairstyle will be impeccably maintained. This adds to his charisma.
They say 'what's there in looks'? Do you agree or disagree with that, let us know in the comments?
6. Calmness is the key
We all face tough situations in life, and especially if it is our doing, we are the first ones to get tense and stressed out. Anxiety gets the better of us, and we feel that things are haywire. However, this is where Harvey lets us know that maintaining composure works miracles, not just to solve situations but also in keeping people's trust in you. When things go bad, a calm demeanor helps you show that you can be trusted and that you can bring situations under your control with ease, thus establishing that you are the true alpha, the leader.
5. First impressions matter a lotLo
They say that the first impression is the last impression and they are not wrong on that. A particular character named Louis Litt was seen as a jealous, miserable being, and his image of that was burned in their minds.
Later, no matter how much he tried to improve the situation, things did not change, and he has still seen as pain the backside because of what people thought of him. Remember folks; you need to be careful about what the first impression you are making on the people you meet. It can go a long way.
Do you think that first impressions matter a lot? Let us know what you think in the comments.
4. Having contacts matters a lot
When you have contacts, you have an army of experts to rope in to help you when things go south. Harvey Specter has connections who owe him a lot. To repay him, he asks for favors.
These include doing background checks, tapping a phone line, or even threatening; Harvey knows well how to use people for this benefit. However, this wasn't achieved overnight.
Harvey cultivated his contacts through dominant and intelligent social communication, thus establishing himself as a 'pack leader' and someone you cannot take lightly. Throughout the series, you see how Harvey leverages these contacts for his benefit.
3. Hard work doesn't always matter
Hard work can take you a long way if you are consistent. However, there are limitations to hard work too. If people don't like you, your hard work will be hardly recognized, and people will rather hate you for it than respect you.
This is one of the biggest lessons that Harvey has taught Mike. The base of this lesson is the fact that people love someone who they can relate to. If they can't relate with you, your achievements are likely to evoke resentment or plain apathy.
2. Emotional intelligence matters more than raw intelligence
Harvey mentioned that it is not just your logical intelligence that works for your success with people, but it is your emotional intelligence that is counted.
Always talk and behave to make people feel at ease. This helps you to gel well with them and ensures that you can do can great stuff for them and that you are the right man who they can approach. This will immensely help you succeed in achieving your goals.
Before we go for our number 1 pick, here are some of our honorable mentions.
- Be A Risk Taker
Taking calculated risks goes a long way. If you keep on trying to play safe, you can never discover hidden opportunities and unseen venues of life.
- Following Every Rule Gets You Nowhere
Now this is just paradoxical. But the truth remains that if you follow all the rules, you will make it to success. Sometimes, break a few rules to get there.
1. Lost trust is never gained back
If you betray someone's trust, it never comes back, but results in hatred and resentment. When a person invests their trust in you, they are leaving themselves vulnerable, thinking you will never betray them. However, when they are proven wrong with this, they are naturally inclined to feel angry and thus develop hatred.
These were our top 10 things you can learn from Suits. If you agree with our list, comment in the comment section below.

The reaction involves a radical cyclization/radical addition sequence to generate the iminium ion, which is then trapped by the organolithium, organoboronate, or organosiliconate. The resulting iminium ion undergoes a ring closure reaction, producing the 3-benzylidenepyrrolidine. This methodology eliminates the use of organometallic or organosilicon intermediates, providing a convenient route to a variety of useful building blocks. The high atom economy and excellent functional group tolerance of this protocol provide an effective means to generate pyrrolidine-based libraries for the development of small-molecule therapeutics and biological probes.1.

The box has an anti-scalding handle to make it easy to carry, a built-in utensils tray, and a sealed outer container to keep food fresh.
👤Update after 3 weeks. Great product. Excellent quality. The 4 locks keep your food out of the water. It is heavy and not cheap. The lunch was warm and fast. There is an extra storage for fruits and veggies. It stopped working after 15 days of use.
👤I love being loved. The most elegant lunch box in the history of the box is this one. The most lunch box ever was invented. It's very convenient to warm it up in your vehicle. Everyone in my family wants one go figure, so I will be ordering at least three more. This would make a great Christmas gift. During this time of the Pandemic, Amazon is my first stop when scouting these stores. Thank you Amazon, you are the best!
👤I am giving a 5 because there is no 10. It is easy to use and clean. My husband is a truck driver and he told me that the meal is hot within 5 minutes. If you are looking for a good quality, don't hesitate. This is the one. We love it.
👤My construction worker husband loves it. He'll take anything from leftovers to frozen breakfast sandwiches. Every evening, when I come home, I take the insert for easy cleaning. He calls it his crock pot when he brags about it.
👤The product is perfect. I use it for my children's lunches. The plug in warming feature is not available at school, but they said it keeps the food warmer than the other thermos. Definitely buy.
👤This worked perfectly because I wanted a way to take lunch to work. My lunch was very warm when I plugged it in, and it was 10 minutes before lunch. The included fork was great and it was not nice to have a hot lunch. I wanted to take my daughter to a hot dinner when I pick her up from practice. When she got out of practice, I used the car adapter to warm it up. It was perfect for both of these needs. I'm very happy with it.
👤My husband loves it and bought it for his lunches. It is not a microwave. He plugs it in a couple of hours before lunch so he can eat. He is a contractor who travels a lot and this makes it easier to find a lunch place.
👤I used a deep dish paper for air fryer and used another paper for top, it was very hot and easy to clean. I was going to have a hot meal. It has an indoor plug as well. Highly recommended.

The portable heating lunch box is perfect for traveling. It will keep your food fresh and warm even after hours of travel or work.
👤It works, but the up to 300 degree farenheit claim may be a stretch. Good for heating but not cooking. It melted inside the 12volt outlet in my truck after 4 months.
👤We have bought a lot of these at truck stops. This is our main way of cooking and it takes a lot of damage being thrown around in the truck and used several times a day. We love this product so much that we continue to replace older ones with new. We use bread tins in the cooker because spills can happen inside if we use too much. After a year or so, Clorox wipes start to get run down and it's harder to clean. I would recommend this to anyone driving a car or semi for work. We use it in our car to save money on fast food. When my kids were young in sports and activities, we could eat a nice meal in-between without going to a drive through, so it would have come in handy.
👤It works well. The paperwork inside states is exactly what I wanted. The cigarette lighter came apart, and the parts were lost from inside. I recommend you check that it's tightened frequently. I have used it to cook leftovers. I got the leftover pizza from the pizza place and it had a crunchier crust. I work all day as a package delivery driver, so I'm stuck in my truck all day and this has allowed me to get away from cold sandwiches every day. There is a I'm very happy with this product.
👤The collapsible models in this class do not cook. They do not cook, but they are more compact, nicer to look at, and so on. Over time, they will keep things warm, but not cook. I've tried almost every kind. I return to these. It's ugly but it works and it gets hot. There is a They are designed to fail after a few years. The cheapest plastic is used on the 12v connections and I have had two fail at the connection point over the last decade. I am conscious of how I treat the connection while I am back to this model. The inability to unplug the cord from the case is the biggest shortcoming. It would be nice if you could just put the cord in the lunch box and not use it again. This is the type of cooker you should get if you are looking for a DC Car cooker.
👤I didn't think this box could be so useful. If you're trying to be thrifty on the road and don't want to stop and pay a lot of money for a meal, this thing is amazing at heating up already prepared foods.
👤It takes several hours to warm up trash, so buy a roadpro.
👤My husband is a fishing guide, and this has been huge for him. He plugs it into the ac adapter on the boat and has a nice hot lunch to warm him up. The best thing I've purchased this year is probably the one that lasted three months. I love it!
The gift is specially designed for the car. The heated lunch box is suitable for the driver who has to drive on the road for a long period of time a day, which allows them to eat home-cooked food even while traveling. It's a great gift for them. The lunch box has two plugs, one for home and one for car, so it can be used both ways. You can heat meals in different places with the portable lunch heating storage box. Say goodbye to fast food. The bento box is made of food grade plastic and 304 steel. Their food container has strong heat resistance and is safe.

You can clean the lunch box easily because it has a tray. It is dishwasher friendly. The waterproof design of the plug port can keep it out of the water. It has two compartments, so you can't mix your food. If you want to separate different types of food, they have included a plastic compartment. They have included a spoon and fork for you.
👤I received the product. I was not sure about the quality. The outter box was a mess and there was a stain on it. I have been eating sandwiches for lunch for a long time and got very excited to try this new toy. The instruction manual is very easy to read and doesn't have much information about how to use the lunch box. I put a little water in the metal container to make sure it was dry. After half an hour. It was warm enough. 45 minutes would be ideal. I should have been looking for this a long time ago. It's safe and easy to use and there's a container for sauce.
👤My husband always takes leftovers for lunch the next day and I bought this for him. He used it this morning and said his food was great for lunch and he loved it! The seal came off when he took the lid off, and he couldn't get it back on. Will contact the seller if it is no longer spill proof. He loves it. I contacted the seller about the seal coming off and they replied to me the same day and shipped off a replacement the next day. That is awesome customer service.
👤This is a good product if you bring lunch a lot. This will warm up your food. It has a jack for both cars and trucks. Highly recommended.
👤Es un producto, a la hora de dar una opinion. Y una. hora antes lo enchuf en el carro, quien tienen una confesar.
👤For Christmas, I bought a similar item for my brother. I bought this version because I realized how beneficial it would be for me. I like the idea of warming my food line while I work in a factory. I have to walk a long way to get to the cafeteria. I have a few notes. I agree with the manufacturer that adding a little bit of water helps warm the food. The warmer should be started approximately one hour before needed. I feel as if the lid clippers or snappers that secure the lid to the base could have been better. The closing tab is very short. I sometimes feel like I have to press them very hard to close the device. I think that overtime will wear out. It is a good device and I would recommend it to someone.
👤Plug in and it will heat automatically. The design of the compartment makes it easy to put your spoon in it. This is wonderful! There is a The instructions say to put some water in the box, but they don't know if it means the outer box or the food container. I put water for them. The box is not a big deal because it is hard to clip in. There is a The time it takes for heating is long. It takes 25 minutes to heat the food. I tested it with dinner. I didn't put a lot of rice. It takes 30 min to heat the food to 145F, but it's helpful when you're outside. There is a plastic smell after heating. I think this is going to go away after a while. When I go hiking in the summer, I will use this food heating device.
As he makes his way through each stage, he is wearing protective, handicraft costumes. The electric food warmer has two different plugs, one for work and one for cars. The use of a more safe and heat insulation dual function is used in fast heating. Plug in the cable and you can have a warm meal in your seat without waiting in line.

They also provide knives, forks and spoons. You can clean it easily with aremovablestainless steel tray. It is dishwasher friendly. The quality is high. The lunch box is made of food grade PP material and is temperature resistant and healthy. ADD TO CART if you have hot food.
👤Me result una calentar, llevarlo, and a da de pesca. You're right. No tengo, donde quiera, est gracias por leer.
👤I can't afford to eat out every day because of COVID restrictions. This purchase was amazing. I have a lot of different things in my lunch. My reheated steak was amazing and many of my coworkers followed the smell. I put it in my existing lunch box.
👤My sons are electricians and they don't have a microwave so they usually have cold cut sandwiches every day. They can take hot lunches and leave overs for lunch thanks to this lunchbox. Is the food really hot? It beats ham and cheese sandwiches 6 days a week.
👤I like that it is portable. I don't like that when it's warm, the room smells like plastic. I put my food in the aluminum tray, but I use it as a water holder to steam my lunch in the glass container that I put in the glass container. It takes an hour for my food to be ready to eat so I have to plug it in an hour before my lunch.
👤I bought this product for my husband's lunch since he can't find a place to heat it up and he connects it about half an hour before lunch. He gets to eat a meal.
👤My husband works at different job sites that don't have a break room, so this heatbox makes it possible. He can have a nice warm lunch without having to go to a fast food restaurant.
👤Purchase a lunch box for my husband and he loves it. He no longer has cold lunches in his van.
👤We have been guessing since there are no instructions. There was a sticker on the top that said to open the vent. If you add water to the product it will drain out all the holes. We've tried to heat things. The stuff is not hot 45 minutes in. We tried closing the vent but it didn't work. This product is not good.
👤Me gust mucho la fiambrera, pero tiene bastante capacidad. Ahora, la comida estuvo en el refrigerador en unos 25 -31 minutos. There is a Los cubiertos son pequeos pero de material resistente. There is a No me gust mucho, pero el cable is demasiado corto (60 cm aprox). Sin duda fue una compra. It's recomiendo!
👤No pude probarla, estoy en proceso de devolverla. No obstante tiene buen aspecto me hubiera.
👤Muy prctica. Amigo capacidad. Calienta, sineder la temperatura.
👤Muy, a excepcin de la cerrar, mucho trabajo de 1 solo lado. Cuando lo logras cerrar es una maravilla.
👤creo, han sido de las compras, he hecho...

The car microwave needs to use containers that are FLAT and HEAT-RESISTANT. If you have any questions about the portable food warmer, please contact them.
👤The thing is the best I have ever owned. It is perfect for me because I can't always find a place to stop and eat. It doesn't take long to heat up stuff that isn't frozen, but even if it is frozen for 2.5 to 3 hours, it will be so hot you have to let it cool a few minutes before you eat it. It is worth the money.
👤The boyfriend is a truck driver. Says it's good. He said it was piping hot after about an hour after I packed him some gumbo. He ate one of the breakfast burritos I made and it was warm enough to eat, but not hot. He ate the other one after 4 hours and said it was nice and hot. It's not certain if it's plastic that heats faster or if there's an issue with it. I will be trying different containers to see which works best. He is very happy with it. He doesn't have to have cold lunches anymore.
👤The thing works but takes 30 minutes to get into 5th gear. It's smaller than advertised but no big deal... There is a You better not put it in your cigarette lighter. The back one is more powerful than the front one, so use it in the back of the car or truck. This thing stole my whole front cigarette lighter conduit from the fuse box to the front auxiliary input. There was smoke coming out and it looked like a fire. The smoke went away when I unplugged it. I said it was this thing. If it's in there, it's my fault because I didn't read the instructions. I can't use the front auxiliary anymore. I will have to get a new fuse box or run it from the battery. I needed a fuse box because my number 2 fan is not showing power at my ac because it is not getting cold enough. I'm not upset about my auxiliary. The box works well. I keep it in the back of the car.
👤Sometimes the microwave works, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it's just to disgusting to use. It holds my lunch, but I can take a quick break before lunch, plug it in and it will heat up my food. Even though this only comes with a car plug, I can use it inside of the trailer we use as a break room because the power station has a car plug. It will take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes to warm up a meal. It depends on how cold the food is and how large the meal is. Even with this on for a long time, I use a plastic container that doesn't melt and heats up my food. I have a camping trip planned in the mountains. I will definitely be taking this with me.
👤Save that lunch money. This thing pays for itself. This is the perfect product for people on a budget. It only took about an hour for the dinner to heat up. I plugged it in and let it sit while I worked. You don't have to remove the food from the packaging. Can't wait to use the portable oven more.

👤This is one of the best gifts I have ever bought! I got this for my husband as he doesn't get a hot lunch at work unless he goes for a run for some fast food at a certain point. I'm not happy with that. I knew I had to figure out a plan to get some home cooking into his belly. The electric lunch box is awesome. It was missing the car instructions and the car charging station. Oh no! I messaged the seller to let them know that I needed a replacement, and they got it for me the next day. I was very happy with it. I was going to order a second metal tray. Great seller. I was compelled by personal experience and not promised anything for this review. Thank you for reading!
👤My husband spends a lot of money for lunch in fast food restaurants. I prepare food for him to save money. I bought a plastic lunch box that can be used with micro-waving, however, he always has to line up and wait for a long time to heat his food, and that's a problem. He has 30 minutes for lunch so he sometimes skips his meals because he can't wait to use the bathroom. The lunch box is a great idea. The lunch box is divided into two parts, you can put rice, noodle, soup or salad in a larger part or in a smaller part. After 30 minutes, you just need to plug into electric and keep doing your work. You can eat warm food. I recommend this one for people who don't have micro-forgiveness. There is a Don't forget to follow the instructions.
👤This thing is amazing. The english instructions and box are flimsy and give the impression that this is a cheap chinese product. How hard is it to make a durable plastic box with a heating element in the bottom? The bread was lightly toasted on by me because the heater got hot. I think it could have been toast if I left it longer. The food is hot but not so hot that you can't eat it. Imagine food in the oven and it's been sitting for a while. It's too hot to eat. You can. I let the food sit in for longer than the recommended time and that's how hot it got. The metal bowl is easy to clean. Everything just rolls off. I put oatmeal and peanut butter in here and it came off with just water. There is a The bowl is large. This is a bit larger than a kids lunch box but shorter on the other side. Imagine if you filled your child's metal lunch box with macaroni and cheese. You would have a lot of food. It can hold 2 or 3 full meals worth of space, so you can heat it up. You could buy a few of these and use them as buffet serving stations at your next party. There is a It is difficult to put on the lid, but that is a good sign. I'm pretty sure it won't come off in transport. It has never caused me a problem and has not leaked. The lid is very tight. There is a Imagine if you needed to bring something you cooked to a friend's house and keep it warm in your car. It's big enough to hold a lot of food, and it's a small casserole dish. It wouldn't spill because of the strong lid.

👤My husband works in construction. This is a perfect place to warm up the food at the site. There have been no complaints so far.
👤The product has not been used yet. There are no instructions. There is a small hole in the bag that the 12v cord can slip through to the outside. The only option is to modify the bag so that the plug for the 120v cord can fit through the hole. The insulated cord might be in danger of melting if the heat inside the bag weakens. It seems like they just added the extra hotplate. The last immediate issue was that the hotplates had a rigid side and a slightly padded side, not certain which side goes down. The hole for the 12v is aligned with one corner of the hot plate, so it makes sense that the rigid side would go up. Hopefully this is true for both hotplates. We never heard of this product until last week, but we're really excited to see how it works. If there is anything significant to report, we will update this review.
👤It cooks food fast. He couldn't believe it. We use thermos but not enough food or it's cold within 2 hours. If you are a truck driver that works long hours and would rather have home cooked meals to eat than fast food, this is the product for you. Once you plug in, the food will be cooked up in less than 40 minutes. You can use either glass or aluminum. I bought it for him after I found it.
👤I love it. I don't like using microwaves. I don't own anything. I had to pack a lunch when I went back to work after being laid off. The only way to cook my lunch was with a microwave. I died from using the microwave or going out for lunch. My wife told me that my mom has a lunch bag that she uses to heat food. I did some research and found that this was the best one for size and also comes with a car adaptor, which is great for long trips. Plug it in, the only thing you have to do is. I heat everything up in a glass dish. You need 1.5 to 2 hours to heat your food and it doesn't come with it's own container. You need a potholder because the container holding your food becomes very hot when it's done. Your food will be very hot and it will look like you just cooked it. Great purchase.
👤The warmer. My husband is always on the road for work, so I ordered this warmer for him. He was eating cold food. He can use the light port of the truck. He uses the lighter outlet in the car since most jobs are new. His co-workers are amazed at how well it works. I share the link so they can order one.
👤The item says a dual voltage, but where is the adjustment of the voltage? There is no brochure to read the instructions. Is it okay to use plastic container, cardboard or any container to warm food?

👤This is a game-changing item. My husband takes his lunch to work. He isn't always around a restaurant or a take out place. It saves a lot of money. I cook at home almost every night and we always have leftovers. I would pack him sandwiches so he wouldn't have to eat them cold. I portion out some in his lunch box and put it in the fridge for him to grab when he gets home. It does a good job of heating everything up, like a crockpot would. There is a If he doesn't have an outlet, he can use the car charge. The portion size is large enough. I never use PAM. There is a There are extras in the compartment that my husband keeps in case he forgets his fork or spoon. There is a It takes a little while to heat up, so you have to plug it in before you go. We only had this for a few months. I can't say how long this will last, but so far it's good. Such a good purchase.
👤It is a great concept, but it is a poor design. I was surprised to see that it has no insulation. It fits a lot of food, but a little insulation would make it better. The walls are paper thin. You have to stir the food often because it only heats from the bottom. The top is hard to clean. It took about an hour to heat the pasta. It would be more efficient with a little insulation. There is a I enjoyed a warm meal in my truck after it heated my food.
👤While we have a trailer that we can take a break in, we don't have a microwave because we are out in the middle of nowhere. We have plugs. The electric lunch box allows me to take some time to plug in and it makes my food nice and warm when I come back for lunch. I put what I need to keep warm inside of this in my lunch bag, but I have other items with me. When I get ready to use this, I take out my bag and put it on a table. I was afraid that it would cause an issue but since using this, the heat stays inside the container and does not warm up the outside. I had my boss stay with the container for about 10 minutes to prove this, and he said that the outside of the container was not warm enough for them to have an issue. My food was warm and ready to eat when we opened it. I can enjoy a warm or hot lunch in my large lunch bag.
👤Este producto ha sido til y prctico para los almuerzos. He comprado dos de ellos. 15 minutos antes de almorzar y perfecto, Calienta la comida. Lleg en tiempo y es igual a la descripcin.
👤A good product with a good price. Works are described. It is easy to clean. On a day trip on the car, I was happy to have a warn lunch without stopping at a restaurant. The same good result was achieved when tested with AC.

👤I like this little oven. I prepare food on Sundays. I can now warm up my food on the bus, instead of waiting to get back to the house to cook or pack it, because I drive a school bus. We are in a busy season, so I leave the yard at 6AM and come back at 10PM without fast food or being hungry.
👤This item is useful. In a million years, someone would come up with this. They were thankful they did. I eat hot food on the go because I travel a lot and it saves me time and money. Home cooked food is the best. I don't like eating burgers on the go. Thank you.
👤My husband needs to warm up his lunches in his work truck. It works well.
👤The plug in was broken when I received it. I had to return it. I purchased the 1st one for over two years.
👤I like this portable oven, I take a frozen dinner, plug it into the cigarette lighter, and I have a hot meal, which is cheaper than going to the restaurants. There is a This device pulls 3 A while running, it pulls 3 A for about two hours, and then it backs down to 1.5 A to keep it warm. There is a The battery in my car is always running for 4 hours. I have cooked hamburgers from raw frozen meat and it was done in four hours. There is a If the bread gets really dry, the meals need to be covered. There is a The potatoes don't come out crisp. There is a The cooker still works despite the plastic base cracking. It would be great if the heating plate was waterproof, so that accidental spills wouldn't ruin the device. There is a It works well.
👤Does a good job of heating my food. I drive around and eat lunch in my work vehicle. I had a problem taking warm food because of this. The product is built very well and works well even though it takes an hour to heat up a dish.
👤My man works in the winter and I bought this for him. It's not usually possible to have a hot lunch. This has been a lifesaver. He likes it. I'm sure other things can be done, such as heating up frozen burritos. He hasn't tried to cook it on it. If he does, I'll add more.
👤Estoy una satisfecho con el producto calienta rpido.
👤I was wiping the hotplate to clean it and the side pieces broke off as I was doing it. It is most likely to be a few more days before it stops working. The seller said they sent a new one to me.
👤It wasn't what we expected. There is a The bag they give is not strong. Warming up lunch or heating food is not something we would recommend. It was not suitable for use in the car. The product is being returned to Amazon.

👤I bought this to eat a variety of soups, as sandwiches just get boring after a while, and I am a technician in the field. I was very disappointed that it didn't heat up very well, or very fast, as I plugged it in using the 12 volt card adapter. I was looking for similar products to replace it when I decided to try plugging it in with the 110volt cable it came with. It got hotter and hotter. I have piping hot soup after 45 minutes. I thought I would share this with the rest of Amazon because I don't see anyone mentioning it in the instructions or reviews. Enjoy!
👤For Christmas, I bought this for my husband. I thought it would be a good idea for him to heat his lunch. He is a local truck driver. He sometimes brings lunch but not much hot food because he has to microwave at his stops and the food gets cold before he gets to it. He had a heart attack a few years ago and should eat more healthy, but still rely on gas station food. We all know that it isn't healthy. I bought this hoping it would be used and not sit in the truck unused. It was a complete hit. He is more excited than I have ever seen. Since the new year, he has used it every day. He takes home made soups that I freeze. I make him healthy breakfasts in the morning. He can enjoy them on the go, because he just pops them into this wonderful contraption and they are hot within minutes. Five stars! My husband and I are saving money on lunch. Win!
👤My boyfriend hates microwaved food and is always on the road. I had trouble packing his lunch, sandwiches were getting old. He was working long hours and a home cooked meal wouldn't keep warm. I finally found this and I am happy. He couldn't be happier. He plugs it into his car and in 20 minutes he has a warm meal. He is not a small guy because it is big enough to fill him up. Would buy it again.
👤This thing is great. You can eat leftovers again, but you can't tell if you're eating fresh or not. It's not recommended, but scrambled eggs are a great way to start your day, and you can make them with some already cooked potatoes.
👤Hace una semana lo compré y hasta ahora me a funcionado.
👤I only have a limited amount of food, but this portable heater lunch box is very sweet. I can warm up hot meals at home. Highly recommended.
👤My boyfriend is happy with his lunch box, he allways on the road, sometimes he has to wait on line for his coworkers to use the microwave, and today everyone asked him where he got it from. They like it. He's happy with my purchase.
👤This is a small wave that you can take with you everywhere. I'm in treatment for cancer. Since there's no way to heat it in the infusion ward, I'm going to use it to take lunch.
Personalized packed lunch The electric lunch box has a high quality fabric outer cover and is lined with high density foam and reflective thermal insulation foil.

The set is easy to clean and can be put in the dishwasher to save time.
👤It was bought a week ago and only used twice before the carrying handle broke.
👤I thought it was going to be a little bigger but my husband likes it and it keeps the food warm. It is great if you start it before you want to eat. We just got it.
👤I use it on the graveyard shift. It works like a slow cooker. There is a great portion size available. If I'm not talking about the hard lunch box, I can talk about sandwiches.
👤Los cierres se rompen. No recomiendo, adems.
👤No vale la pena, no tengo acceso a calentar, no lunch, no tapadera, and no laves dos. It takes forever to heat the car charge.
👤It looks cute, spacious, warm up food, and I loved it.
👤I use ir everyday at work and it works great.
👤My man loves his lunch box. He said it gets very hot very quickly. It is nice to have a place to eat on a job site.

Downtown Montgomery memorial honors fallen sheriffs
The sound of bagpipes echoed through downtown Montgomery on Wednesday as a memorial honoring the fallen sheriffs of Alabama was unveiled.
Calhoun County Sheriff Matthew Wade played "Amazing Grace" on the pipes, dressed in full Highlander regalia. Twenty names are inscribed on the bronze plates, covering a timeframe from 1845 to 2019. The memorial is in front of the Alabama Sheriff's Association. The most recent name is that of slain Lowndes County Sheriff "Big John" Williams, who was shot and killed in the line of duty Nov. 23, 2019.
Williams' widow, Joann, and his daughter, Shanice, attended the ceremonies. Along with his name on the memorial, Williams posthumously received the 2020 National Sheriff's Association Ferris E. Lucas Sheriff of the Year Award. The NSA has been giving the award to the nations' top lawman since 1995. The award was present to Joann and Shanice Williams by Baldwin County Sheriff Hoss Mack.
"I just want to thank everyone for remembering my dad," Shanice Williams said after the ceremony. "The award is a big honor for him. It makes us proud."
Throughout John Williams career he was active in both the national and state sheriffs associations, serving in leadership roles in both organizations.
Montgomery County Sheriff Derrick Cunningham serves as president of the sheriff's association this year, and was a close friend of John Williams.
"It's a proud day for the sheriffs and the association," Cunningham said. "This has been a dream of mine for a long time. In doing our research, we were surprised that there were 20 sheriffs who died in the line going back to 1845. Most died of gun violence.
"They deserve this memorial, so they won't be forgotten."
Williams' name isn't the only Lowndes County sheriff's name to appear on the memorial. Sheriff William E. Haynes was killed in the line of duty on Sept. 5, 1908.

28 SEPTEMBER 2018. Today the Church celebrates the feast of Saint Wenceslaus - the tenth century Duke of Bohemia and martyr for the faith, known far and wide for his humility and pious works on behalf of the poor and needy. Named posthumously as a king, Saint Wenceslaus is yet another reminder that all of us are called to be saints. That is, each of us is called to holiness in our lives, given our state in life, where we seek fully to join ourselves and conform ourselves to the Holy and Divine Will, through our submission to Christ.
Running on at the keyboard:
Much has been made in the U.S. this week of the Brett Kavanaugh hearings before the Senate Judiciary Committee, which is considering his nomination to the Supreme Court. A number of accusations of sexual misconduct and sexual assault have been made against him, and he gave an emotional and pointed rebuke to those accusations and the nomination process yesterday. However, I was disappointed in Judge Kavanaugh. Judicial temperament requires one to maintain a detached view of facts and circumstances to evaluate the application of the law. No judge should be outwardly partisan or emotional, and we saw both from Judge Kavanaugh yesterday in his testimony. To the contrary, a good judge addresses his or her task with humility, emotional neutrality, and somber intellectual inquiry, knowing that decisions can have life-changing consequences for the people impacted. Certainly the Supreme Court's role in our system of government should be able to count on sound judicial temperament from all nine of its justices.
As to sexual assault and all manner of sexual aggression. There is no excuse for these actions. I had a roommate in college who once told me that once he reached a certain point of arousal, there was no way he could stop himself. In his words, he was "animalistic." Not true. We are not animals, and no person should be objectified and victimized for another's sexual gratification or self-satisfaction. As a community of faithful, and as a nation, we should stand in solidarity with those affected by these crimes and ensure that victims are provided for in a manner befitting their dignity.
Dignity of the marriage sacrament, too, must be upheld in our country and throughout humanity. As we have continued to see marriage redefined as any relationship that two individuals want to commit to, not matter what its circumstances and no matter what the sex of the individuals involved are, it is no wonder that our society feels itself in crisis. The basic building block of society, the family--the domestic church--is being defined out of existence. For this reason, we should head carefully and follow Pope Francis' call for a permanent catechumenate for marriage. The marriage vocation should be formed and nurtured from early childhood, through adolescence, into the marital relationship, and throughout life. Our world cannot afford to get this wrong.
Dignity of human life is under constant attack in our world, because we are told that self-gratification is the point of life. "Do what you want. Live for you. Be happy. You do you." These are the messages of Western culture, and they are wrong.
We have an obligation to return our whole selves to God in love, because He loved us. We are called to be something more than animals, because we share in the divine--by virtue of our immortal soul--and have been given the gift of being the adopted brothers and sisters of Christ, our God and savior. Each of us, from the moment of conception until natural death, has a unique and inalienable dignity as the beloved creatures of our God. Our lives are not for us to live for ourselves, they are gifts to live for God, who is our eternal home!
This is why, too, the universal call to abolish the death penalty is important. All life is sacred, no matter the circumstances. No matter the situation. From the earliest point of development, to the end stages of disease and infirmity; no matter the culpability of a person for harm done to others. Life is still precious and shares in the divine and, therefore, must be protected and upheld.
This is truth. It is counter cultural because our culture tells us lies. Live for truth dear brothers and sisters. That is our call.
Dear readers, please pray for me and I will pray for you.
It also occurs to me that there has been little mention of the influence of alcohol on all that is involved in the Brett Kavanaugh allegations. No high school teen should ever be drinking, under any circumstances. Teenage drinking is the great contributor to an untold number of teenage deaths and life altering, harmful events. Parents, keep your children from this influence and model responsible behavior of your own.

A Litany of Reparation
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy.

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy.
I am sorry for my sins,
Father forgive me.
I am sorry for having contributed to the sins of others,
Father forgive me.
I am sorry for having spread sin,
Father forgive me.
I am sorry for my pride, leading me away from You,
Father forgive me.
When I have seen sin and ignored it for the sake of convenience,
Jesus have mercy on me.
When I have failed to examine my own sin,
Jesus have mercy on me.
When I have failed to love another by constructive correction,
Jesus have mercy on me.
When I have relied on prideful self,
Jesus have mercy on me.
In my need for love,
Holy Spirit provide me Your grace.
In my need for satisfaction,
Holy Spirit provide me Your grace.
In my need to be fulfilled,
Holy Spirit provide me Your grace.
In my every longing,
Holy Spirit provide me Your grace.
Hail Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us.
Saint Mary Magdalene, recipient of Mercy,
pray for us.
I reparation for my sin and the sins of all the world, I beg You, Holy Lord, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, to accept my offering and provide for me a clean, humble, contrite, and open heart to love and serve you more, now and always. Amen.
Labels: 2018, Litany of Reparation, sexual abuse
29 AUGUST 2018. The specter of horrible truth has been upon the U.S. and worldwide Church for some days now: the horrible truth that some senior and well-regarded pastors used their ministries as a selfish means to fulfill their own sexual desires; the horrible truth that the Pennsylvania Church, over the last seventy some-odd years, regularly reassigned priests who were know abusers, regardless of the potential for fresh abuse and continued victimization of innocents; and the horrible truth that there has been or is a sexually disordered subculture in some seminaries and rectories that undermines the heart of Christ's teaching of self-giving love that the Church has proclaimed since our Lord's sacrifice on the cross. God bless the people in Chile, Ireland, and the multitude of other countries affected by their own abuse scandals.
Our bishops have failed us. They have not lived up to the life of holiness that each of us is called to live - that each of us is invited to strive for to live life-eternal with God, our Creator. They have failed us in their humanity. And, it is no surprise.
We are all human, and all of us are in need of conversion of heart. Why else did Christ enter the world to save us, but from the ravages of sin and death? Without conversion, we are doomed – literally and figuratively. Doomed to a life without hope in Christ, without Christ's peace (conformity to the Divine Will), and doomed to a life without happiness and satisfaction, as St. Augustine says: "Our heart is restless, until it rests in You [O Lord]."
So, what should the response to this failure be? And, are we right to assign this failure to all bishops, including the Holy Father?
Our response should be one of action – prayer-centered action. Prayers of reparation have poured out of some, and more are needed. But, each of us faithful, including those ordained, should pray for wisdom and guidance in doing our own part, given our state of life, our abilities, and our capacity to effect positive change, in conformity with the Divine Will, to do what is needed or appropriate to bring about healing and build up the Kingdom of God on earth. A people centered on this cannot fail. The Holy Spirit will not permit the forces of evil to prevail against us. (Psalm 21:11)
If the laity seeks holiness, the Church will be transformed. If the laity exercises its priestly calling to be Christ to one another, the Church and the world cannot remain the same. If the laity acts, our shepherds will bring us further as the body of Christ.
This action, too, must have a practical sense about how to seek solidarity with the victims of abuse and prevent abuse from ever occurring again. Solidarity is the first practical objective, we must walk with the victims of abuse in their journeys, so that healing can begin.
Bishops – I beg you – throw open the dark recesses of these problems to the light of truth. Allow us all to grieve with abuse victims and seek reconciliation with them. And, truth will provide no quarter to abusers.
Bishops, be vulnerable to your flocks in all failings and do not consider yourselves above any other. All are equally answerable to our Lord, all must be held to account for their actions, especially those actions that rob innocents of faith and trust in God and the Church.
No evil can stand the light of truth. We must truly seek it in every way.
So, are all bishops guilty of failure? Yes. Each of us is complicit in looking away when we see sinful failings, and we all sin. All sin affects the community. A bishop's failure affects his flock, and the flock's failure is the "stink" that the shepherd has to contend with in loving, as Christ taught. Let none think he is without blame.
However, this does not mean that our bishops should be condemned. On the contrary, they need the support of the faithful in fulfilling their ministry – to proclaim the Gospel and lead souls to Christ.
Any bishop who cannot, after an examination of conscience, rest comfortably that his first mission is to lead in holiness, so as to bring about the Kingdom of God, should resign. All other worldly, societal, humanistic, social, and cultural concerns should be swept aside, if truth is to reign in the heart of the Church.
I pray for our priests, bishops, religious, consecrated, and all souls who earnestly yearn for God.
Pray with me, and build up the Kingdom, set upon the foundation of Jesus Christ, the truth, the way, and the life. (John 14:6)

The Dignity of Each One - Too Precious to Lose
The truth is that comforting words will soothe, but not reach to the heart of what is the matter with our culture and our nation. Comforting words are balm, but we need to take a harder look at why innocent children and teachers are targeted, and how a single individual can become so hardened and callus to carry out such a horrific act.
It is a waste of effort, misplaced from searching for the truth of these matters, to spend all of our energy on the means by which individuals injure another. Gun control legislation will not protect the innocent, in and of itself. We need a deeper look at the culture here.
How many parents allow their children to play first-person shooter video games? How many parents were raised playing such games? How many parents get married, divorced, remarried, and divorced again, in the plain view of children? How many of us yell and cuss at others in traffic, in the isolation of our vehicles, but in sight of our children? How many of us support so-called pro-choice or pro-women's positions which devalue human life as a decision that can be made to discard it? How may parents prioritize respect for others in their children's daily lessons? How many of us live in a selfless manner, seeking the good of others and the common good?
Difficult questions need an honest appraisal and answers that seek to turn each of us, individually, toward a way of life that recognizes the dignity of each other. Our lives should radiate that.
If children grow up in broken homes, witnessing disposable relationships, and spending their entertainment time killing virtual enemies on video games, we are not supporting a culture that upholds the dignity of the other. We are supporting the events that unfold in school shootings, and everyday violence where respect for the lives of others is incinerated in the fire of evil.
There will be those that call for gun control as a solution. Though it could be helpful in denying disturbed individuals the means to carry out violence on a broader scale, it is not a solution.
The solution is to respect and love one another. This is not the love on display in a Hallmark Card: squishy, emotional, gushing, and trivialized. Love is a choice. That choice is to recognize the value of the other and act in a manner that respects it.
Parents should teach their children this love and model it in their daily lives. First, parents model love for their children in how they interact with each other. Second, parents have the responsibility to teach this love each day, and admonish children so that the lessons are learned well.
Fundamentally, this love is Christian because it comes from the very heart of who we are as individuals; creatures of a loving God, made in His image, with a share in the divine through our immortal souls. Our Lord and Savior gave us the commandment to love our neighbor as ourselves (cf. Luke 10:27), but how many of us who profess to be Christians really live this out?
If you go to church on Sunday, but let your children spend hours each day playing Call of Duty--killing others in a virtual reality--are you living out Christ's call?
It does not matter whether an individual professes a Christian faith, or not, it is written on our hearts and on our being that it is unnatural and wrong--at a basic level of humanity--to harm the innocent. So, how can we not live in a society and culture that upholds the dignity of each individual?
We are all responsible.
But there is hope. All of us can change because each of us with the faculties of reason and judgment can modify our behavior. Each of can live as one that is respectful of the dignity of others. This is our call, and it is not beyond our reach or hope. We have only to try.

"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness cannot overcome it,"
Presiding Bishop Michael Curry Christmas Message 2019
In the first chapter of John's Gospel, sometimes referred to as the prologue to the Gospel, sometimes spoken of as the whole Gospel in miniature the Gospel writer says this. As he reflects on the coming of God into the world in the person of Jesus. As he reflects on Christmas. He says, the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness cannot overcome it.
I don't think it's an accident that long ago, followers of Jesus began to commemorate his coming into the world when the world seemed to be at its darkest.
It's probably not an accident that we observe Christmas soon after December 21, the winter solstice. The winter solstice being in the Northern Hemisphere the darkest time of the year.
Undoubtedly, these ancient Christians who began to celebrate the coming of God into the world, they knew very well that this Jesus, his teachings, his message, his spirit, his example, his life points us to the way of life itself, a way of life, where we take care of each other. A way of life, where we care for God's world. A way of life, where we are in a loving relationship with our God, and with each other as children of the one God, who has created us all.
They also knew John's Gospel and John's Christmas story. Now there are no angels in John's Christmas story. There are no wise men coming from afar. There's no baby lying in a manger. There's no angel choir singing Gloria in excelsis Deo in the highest of the heavens. There are no shepherds tending their flocks by night. Matthew and Luke tell those stories. In John, it is the poetry of new possibility, born of the reality of God when God breaks into the world.
It's not an accident that long ago, followers of Jesus began to commemorate his birth, his coming into the world. When the world seemed darkest. When hope seemed to be dashed on the altar of reality. It is not an accident that we too, commemorate his coming, when things do not always look right in this world.
But there is a God. And there is Jesus. And even in the darkest night. That light once shined and will shine still. His way of love is the way of life. It is the light of the world. And the light of that love shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not, cannot, and will not overcome it.
God love you. God bless you and may you have a Merry Christmas and may this world be blessed. Amen.
The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry
Presiding Bishop and Primate
The Episcopal Church
TEC Presiding Bishop Michael Curry is an outstanding Church Leader, preacher and teacher – chosen by Prince Harry of England to preach at his Wedding to his bride, Megan Markle. What he has to say is as much of common sense as of spiritual encouragement. Bishop Michael has been a gift to the U.S. Episcopal Church and to the Anglican world, seeking, as he does, to bring religion into the heart of the community – in a way that is attractive and effective, with an invitation to ALL to rejoice in the knowledge of their creation and nurturing in 'the great Love of God as revealed in The Son'. Would that every Primate and bishop of the Church were able to emulate this pastor's great and loving kindness. God Bless him in his ministry!
