Upcoming Church Events

The Faith Builders Sunday School class is taking a break from their current study to begin "The Christmas Experience" by Kyle Idleman and you are invited to join them!

The Christmas Experience is a 6-week small group study that examines the Christmas story in detail, helping groups (and families) prepare for the Christmas season. Each episode will focus on how God chose each individual in the Christmas story for a specific purpose. Those participating in The Christmas Experience study will be able to find themselves in the Christmas story, as they learn that what happened then changes everything now. Meet at 9:30 in room 103 (behind the piano). Light refreshments and coffee will be served.

Our Women’s Ministry offers a free in-house Christmas card delivery service. Collection will begin today in our foyer and cards will begin being handed out on December 7th. Please make sure that any cards that you have to be given out are in alphabetical order by last name. If you have a large number of cards, please make sure that they are bundled together when they are placed in the box. Also, new to the process this year, we are asking that the “from family” name is listed in the “return address” section of your envelope.

Our annual tradition of bringing poinsettias to place in the sanctuary in memory of or honor of loved ones will begin December 7th. We are asking that you place them on the side stages around the Christmas trees. There will be a clip board in the side foyer for you to leave the information about the poinsettias you will be placing. PLEASE don't forget to fill out this form so that we can recognize your loved ones. Please plan to remove your poinsettias after the Christmas Eve service.
