WORSHIP
Please be sure to fill out a Connect Card each week to let us know you were at church and how the staff can be praying for you. If you attend the first service drop it in the offering plate as it goes by. If you attend the second service you can put the Connect Card in the offering boxes at the back of the Sanctuary. For those of you who regularly fill them out - THANK YOU!
Want to listen to the new music we have coming up - Check out this link https://youtu.be/sT-
We continue our Advent Journey to Joy with a third Sunday of Advent message that looks at Joy. Don't forget to bring your passport.
Passport correction - on the December 4 note page there is a question asking about the symbol of love on the sanctuary table. This question is actually meant for the December 24 morning services, when there will be a symbol of love on the sanctuary table.
Prayer List Reminder - If you would like a list with full names they are available by request from the Welcome Center and if they run out Leann will be happy to print one for you.
Young at Heart - Celebrate Christmas with Bonnie Perkins on Tuesday, December 19th at 10:30 a.m. You are asked to bring a small, wrapped gift with you. Lunch will be provided. It is sure to be a good time.
Christmas Card Baskets - The baskets have been set out for Christmas cards. Please be sure to check them often for card. Cards not claimed by January 1 will NOT be mailed and will be disposed of. If you know you will be out of town and plan on getting your cards after, let Leann know and she will hold them for you.
