Advent Planning
This year most of us will still be eating Thanksgiving leftovers when we begin the celebration of Advent on December 1st. As always, we need lots of volunteers. People to decorate and undecorate the church, candle lighters for the Advent wreath, adults or youth to help the children fill the creche and retell the Christmas story, and readers for Christmas Eve. Please consider making one of these tasks part of your Advent celebration. There are sign up sheets in Nelson Hall. If you have questions, talk to Linda Melton.
Poinsettia Orders
The Worship Ministry Team invites members to order poinsettias as part of our Advent decorations for the church. You may purchase a poinsettia in memory or celebration of a person or event. The cost is $12. If you wish to take a plant home, they will be available after the service on January 5. Contributions can be placed in the offering plate or dropped off at the church office.
