*There was a Christmas devotional recorded yesterday- What a Christmas Eve this has been! Definitely one that we will remember forever.

*The Vigil last night was beautiful! There's something so sweet about this Christmas- a sort of bitter sweet. They adjusted a few things (with the sound at the jail) and this recording picked up the choir better than the recording above.

The holiday season means a lot to a lot of people. Around the world various holidays are celebrated. I grew up celebrating Christmas and as an adult, I have heard the arguments for and against the holiday. I however, want to draw your attention to the time of year itself. Both Christmas and Hanukkah fall close to or sometimes on the winter solstice, the day when light begins to overtake the dark. As fall and winter wear on, things decay and die, but magically, this time of year, light slowly comes back, life is renewed and by spring things are new again.
For the 1,300+ J6 defendants, the last three years have felt as though darkness continues to grow. Few "breaks'' have happened in the overall J6 "narrative", particularly as the courts are concerned. Defendants increasingly are tried, convicted and sentenced. For many, sentencing is their solstice. A release date is assured, when this dark time will end, and each day will bring you closer to the light at the end of the tunnel. 2024 will also bring much resolution to J6 defendants. It's expected the Supreme Court will rule once and for all on the 1512 Obstruction charge. No matter the Supreme Court decision, this will bring closure and the end of darkness of doubt on the most serious charge for the majority of defendants. 2024 will also bring to conclusion the political direction the country will take, we will take. We will know once and for all. Donald Trump's political status "may" bring relief to many ensnared in J6 prosecutions and people serving sentences. No man knows for certain all that 2024 may bring, but surely it will be a year where much light and clarity will be brought to J6 defendants. May our hope be in God, that his design and will be made manifest.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all!
-Taylor
