You probably get the same question that I do each year. "Are you taking a break over Christmas"?
Unfortunately that just doesn't happen for me. In fact this time of year gets very busy. I have all my normal duties as well as outside broadcasts and extra compering duties. I still have to work on all the public holidays and in the weeks leading up to Christmas I usually have to work weekends too.
I'm not complaining, it goes with the territory, but most people figure that everything slows down at this time of year.

Hi Mark, thanks for this honest post. It is a good reminder to pray for our Pastors...even more so at this time of the year. I hope you get a chance to have a good break after Christmas. In the meantime I hope those around you are able to help you out and perhaps take some of the stuff you do.
God Bless,
Dave
