Happy New Year to all.
"Happy New Year!" That greeting will be said and heard for at least the first couple of weeks as a new year gets under way.
In the South, we celebrate the new year by consuming black-eyed peas. These legumes are typically accompanied by either hog jowls or ham. Black-eyed peas and other legumes have been considered good luck in many cultures. The hog, and thus its meat, is considered lucky because it symbolizes prosperity. Cabbage is another "good luck" vegetable that is consumed on New Year's Day by many. Cabbage leaves are also considered a sign of prosperity, being representative of paper currency. So, be sure and eat your cabbage and black-eyed peas.

Welcome to the on-line home of Monterey Church of Christ. We are a rural congregation that values two thing above all else: loving God and loving people.
If you are looking for a church home, we invite you to come join us for worship.
If you have any questions or comments for us, please feel free to call or drop us a line via email to Linda at Iamalive005@aol.com or to Davon at davon.huss@gmail.com
 
Be sure and add your name, address, phone number etc. to Davon's list at church. This will help him be able to make contact with us. He maybe even be able to piece together who belongs to who and who is kin to who. That is always a challenge for a new minister.
Jeff Walling is coming. Make plans to attend LA Christian Convention in February. Contact Gay or Davon for information.
