Christmas Update

We had a full school bus when we went caroling on Tuesday night; ages ranged from 18 months to 80+ years. It went really well and we finished back at the church with cookies and hot chocolate. Several folks mentioned that they were glad our church still does that sort of thing. I'm glad too; it's the stuff that makes memories.

We had about 120 people at our kids program Wednesday night. Thanks to everyone who helped (Shannon was one of the key folks) and thank you parents for working with your kids. I was really impressed with how much those little guys memorized. It was awesome! Good job Mr. Anderson.

Saturday evening at 7pm is our "Carols and Candlelight." Please bring your family and friends. We'll have lots of singing and, you guessed it, candles! No heavy sermons or tedious ceremonies this time; it should be very "user friendly" for those not that comfortable with church.

Sunday we'll have our worship service as usual, though there will be some minor adjustments for the holiday. At Sunday School the adult classes are having a gift exchange. Remember, bring something you would want to take home yourself, and please keep it at $10 or less.

Merry Christmas and thank you for making your church family part of your celebrations.
