This Sunday, December 2nd, is the beginning of the season of Advent: the four Sundays leading up to Christmas. This year we will be focusing on the traditional themes of HOPE, PEACE, JOY, and LOVE. We'll begin with HOPE, but not the "wishful thinking" type of hope. Biblical HOPE is not a question of "if". It's a sure thing because it's based on God's promises. Instead, the focus is on "when" the promise will be fulfilled. I HOPE to see you there!

Bringing Our Gifts to the King
Although we will be highlighting our children in the program, we're hoping for this to be a multi-generational celebration. We invite anyone to share their gift as a part of our worship service. We'll also be turning the Fellowship Hall into a gallery for people to display their art, photography, needle work, wood working, etc. Everything we've learned to do is a gift from God and can be used to give Him praise!
Sign up in the Fellowship Hall by Sunday, December 9th, to make sure you're included. Contact Mandy Schmekel for more information (509-341-4257)
