December 4th
Many people have lost loved ones and the holiday season can be a difficult time. During this Christmas season we will have a special Christmas tree set up in the sanctuary designated as a Memory tree. During the service on the second Sunday of Advent, December 4th, we will set aside time that people can hang a special ornament of their own on the tree in memory of their loved ones or use an ornament the church will provide for purchase through a voluntary donation. If you are unable to attend in person to hang an ornament in memory of your loved one, please contact the church office and we will gladly do so for you.
The Monday Morning Bible Study meets every Monday morning. After an absence due to COVID, everyone is invited to join together at 9:00 a.m. at our church. The current study is a Tommy Higle Publication "Journey Into Victorious Livng (Life ofd Joseph)" Contact the church office for more information.

Our church has sponsored Gabriel Oduori from Kenya since 2013 when he was just 7 years old. This assistance helps make sure his daily needs are met and he is given opportunities to experience the love of our Lord. As we provide a monthly support donation, we also encourage church members to pray for him and to write letters.
