Season's Greetings from the Atlantic Union Conference President 
The Holiday Season is a time of joy and charity. It is also a time to expand our giving and the sharing of good gifts to those in need far and near. May the spirit of this Christmas and New Year's season fill you, your family, and friends with unbounded happiness even as you look to a new year and new opportunities.

May the words of the prophet Isaiah speak volumes to your soul during this Season when he writes: "I will tell of the Lord's unfailing love. I will praise the Lord for all He has done. I will rejoice in his great goodness."--Isaiah 63:7, NLT.

Donald L. King, Atlantic Union Conference president and the Atlantic Union College Board of Trustees chairman
