Now after they had left, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a
dream and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and flee to
Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search
for the child, to destroy him.”  Then Joseph got up, took the child and
his mother by night, and went to Egypt, and remained there until the
death of Herod.  This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord
through the prophet, “out of Egypt I have called my son.” –Matthew
2:13-15

And I have no regrets.

SECRET SANTA RULES:

You will receive your Secret Santa prompt no later than Wednesday, November 28!

If you are writing, please try to limit your story to a one-shot.
If you want to come back at a later time, after Christmas, to post
more, that’s fine, but try to the best of your abilities, to keep it to a
one-shot (as someone who has difficulty doing this, I understand that it’s tough, but do try!)

Secret Santa creations can be posted between Dec. 24 and Jan. 6
(the full 12 Days of Christmas!)

ONCE
YOU RECEIVE YOUR PROMPT, BE SURE TO CONTACT ME TO LET ME KNOW YOU GOT
IT! And always, feel free at ANY time to send me your questions, should
any arise.

And most importantly, HAVE FUN! :oD

Ok! Ready to
make the season merry, cheery, holly, jolly, and bright and deck the
halls with the Bransons?  THEN LET’S GET TO IT!  Nollaig Shona!
