Announcements for December 18th
No Flowers during Advent.
The 2023 Flower Chart is in the Narthex.
The 2023 Cleaning Chart is in the Education Building.
Thank you to everyone who has been attending the Advent Bible Study either in person or via Zoom. The next Study will be held on Wednesday, December 21st at 10:30am.
The new year is a good time to consider how each of us can help our church through various service opportunities: altar guild, Children’s Church, communion assistant, lector, usher. If you currently serve in any of these positions, thank you. If you’d like to volunteer for any of these jobs, please email or leave a message at the church office indicating which jobs you are willing to do.
A History team will be formed with the goal of completing an update for the 110th anniversary in 2024. Jan and Judy will co-chair. Thank you to Russell Kleckley for volunteering. Three additional team members are needed.
