Dear all,
Please join us tonight at 7:00 pm for our Quieter Christmas prayer service. This is a candlelit service of prayer and traditional Advent hymns wherein we pray for those we love (and perhaps have lost) and where we experience the power of Advent but in a softer way. No demands for happy-happy at this service; this service lets us feel all our feelings and invites us to lay them in the loving arms of God. It’s perfect for those who find the hyper-commercialization of the secular Christmas season just too much to bear.
A simple supper will be offered at 6:30 pm. You don’t need to bring anything, just show up and be nourished in body and soul.
All in the community are warmly invited to attend. Bring a friend, and come experience this lovely and peaceful time.
Also this weekend:

Adopt-a-Family
Thank you for your kind response to this initiative. There is only one more “wish” item remaining on the list. If you signed up to bring a gift for our adopted family, please wrap it and label it with the person’s name, and return it to church by December 11. The labeled boxes are in the breezeway.
