Intergenerational Christmas Celebration – Please join us on Wednesday December 15th for a special Christmas celebration. We’ll have dinner served family style at 5:45.
At 6:30 we will enjoy a brief family friendly reflection by our youth. The evening will end 7:45. The sounds of Christmas music, the smell of good food and the beauty of the season will delight your senses.
There will an opportunity for all ages to make ornaments to decorate a tree in the gathering area. This night will be a great way for you and your family to focus not on the stress but on the spirit of Christmas. Entrance fee is a donation of canned goods.
Advent Dinner Series, Reclaiming Christmas – On Wednesday, December 8, we will continue our Advent Dinner Series, Reclaiming Christmas. This week our focus will be on Spending Less, Giving More.
Our culture tells us that a successful Christmas is one in which retailers make lots of money, we spend lots of money, and our Christmas trees are piled high with plentiful and preferably expensive gifts.
- But what if we decided not to let Madison Avenue tell us how to celebrate the birth of Christ?
- What would our family and friends think if we really did follow through on our decisions to spend less on gifts this year?
- And how is it possible that spending less could translate into giving more?
Join us on Wednesday and find out how you can have a subversive Christmas, one that blesses you, your loved ones and the heart of God more than ever before.
Dinner is at 5:45, followed by classes for all ages at 6:30. Suggested donation for dinner is $3.50 for adults and $1.50 for children 10 and under. Check sign-up #5.
