Thank you to all who have made this project a reality. Now, we need to ask one more thing of you. Following our Wednesday evening service on the 15th, we need volunteers to help move the tables and chairs out of the Fellowship Hall. Would you plan to stay and help? Our Wednesday night service on the 15th will be our regularly scheduled quarterly conference. It is at that time that we will vote on the budget for the coming year. We will also hear a report and recommendation from the property committee concerning our Mold issue. This is a very important meeting and I encourage everyone to attend. The meeting will be held in the Sanctuary beginning at 7pm. On the evening of the 16th Steven Camp from Desert Wind Films will be with us showing the trailer to the movie that was made here, Fishers of Men, beginning at 3pm and continuing every half hour until 7pm. You are invited to come by and watch this trailer and join in a time of prayer for the spiritual success of this endeavor. Now the G R E A T E S T N E W S O F A L L, w e will gather together here this Sunday to worship and honor our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. You can join with us, indeed, are expected to join with us. I will look forward to seeing you this Sunday. Paul

What a wonderful time that was experienced by all who participated in Parents, Pajamas, and Pancakes this past Saturday! All children had an opportunity to match clues about Jesus' birth and give their answer. This was followed by a yummy pancake, sausage, and juice breakfast. Bro. Earl shared the Christmas story and everyone sang Christmas Carols. The activity was topped off by children and parents working together to complete three ornaments to take home ......a snowflake, a wreath, and a reindeer!!! What fun we had !!!!! Enjoy our slide show on the church web-page. Earl & The Ministry Team
