Christmas for me is a time of celebration and being with my family. If you are a christian, you are celebrating the birth of Christ. Some Celebrate the African Kwanzaa, others of Jewish decent or faith, celebrate Hanuka. Some here may even celebrate the pagan solstice. No matter your religious or ethnic back ground we are all family here at ACP. We all celebrate together in our own traditional ways. At my house we have our Christmas tree adorned with ornaments hand made, store bought and some passed down from my grand parents, and great grand parents. To me this allows them to still be here among us in memory and heart. This year will be the first Christmas with out my brother. My parents try to hide their pain and grief from us, but we see it and understand it and accept it. This Christmas will be difficult, but in the true spirit, a celebration of birth. We will think back to a life gone, life going forward and life yet to come. Tonight when Santa comes down our chimney and graces our tree with presents and stockings full of goodies, he will be entering a home of love, grief, happiness and sadness all in one. The one thing we wish most for this Christmas will never be, but the one thing we will always have is family, and I think that is true for each and everyone of us this holiday season. No matter which form of holiday you chose to celebrate, please take one moment to think about your family and what each means to you, then tell them how much they mean to you. It’s a gift they will cherish forever. Trust me on that.
Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Hanuka and here’s to a great Pagan Solstice ACP!

How Come It Is That We Help ACP All The Time But We Still Don’t Get Added To The Allies?We Really Need To Be Added Cause It’s Been 3 Wars We Have helped You In.It’s Just Not Right If Any ACP Member Reads This Please Add Us To The allies Or We Just Won’t Have To Help You Anymore..Just Look At Our Records And Your Saying You Don’t Want An Army Like This To help?Give Us A Favor And Add Us To The Allies.
Merry Xmas Please…
