phoenix area specialists: Christmas Once Again - 12/24/10 04:42 AM
Christmas Once Again
It's Christmas once again,
Yes, it's that time of year,
to reflect now and then,
and wish that you were here.
To talk about the story,
about a baby born one night. 
A King without his glory,
who left His throne of might.
The babe grew into a child,
and the child became a man.
The King dwelt among His people,
but they would not understand.
God left His Heavenly splendor,
the Son came from above.
He became the simple servant,
to show that He was love.
 
The one day He died,
crucified upon that … (12 comments)

The tower originally provided water to a neighborhood that was home to workers at the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company's cotton-farming operation in Chandler. The cotton grown there was used in tires and later aircraft construction during World War … (0 comments)
