Christmas Caroling
Following worship this Sunday, December 13th we will have a pizza lunch provided by the Pathfinders and then go caroling to members and friends of our congregation who aren’t able to get out as much as they’d like. Please join us!
Sunday School Christmas Program
Please join us on Sunday, December 20th during our worship service as the Sunday School classes present their annual Christmas Program. Through reading and song, our youth will reenact the story of Jesus’ birth over 2,000 years ago.
Mission Fundraising Bake Sale *NEW*
The Mission Fundraising Team is hosting a Christmas bake sale on Sunday, December 20th following worship. You are invited to bring either prepackaged pies and goodies that people can grab-and-go, or individual Christmas cookies that people can pick-and-choose and create a platter of their own. Items will not be priced - instead, donations will be accepted. This is a great way for all of us to get a variety of treats to share with loved ones during the Christmas holiday! Please consider donating some of your favorite Christmas cookies, candies, breads, pies, etc.
Please join us on Christmas Eve as we celebrate our Savior’s birth through the traditional Moravian Candlelight Service. We will have two services, one at 4:00 pm and one at 8:00 pm.
FYI, the 4:00 service tends to be the one a lot of people attend. (It’s usually standing room only.) If your family’s schedule allows it, we would encourage you to consider attending the 8:00 service to help balance attendance numbers and space considerations.
“Morning Star” Singers
To sign up (either individually or as a group) to sing “Morning Star” at either the 4:00 pm or 8:00 pm Christmas Eve service, speak to a Worship Committee member or Pastor Jason.
Shari Liesch is selling blankets that have a Moravian design, a picture of our church, or and your family name (or a name of your choice) embroidered on them. The blankets are $25 and all proceeds will go to support missions. They would make great Christmas presents! Sign up sheets are available by the volunteer center.
