Pajama Worship Service This Sunday
December 26, 2010, 9:30 AM
Join us this Sunday as we unwind from the hustle and bustle of the holidays. We invite you to wear your pajamas to this service - not what some of you sleep in but your "pajamas." ;)
We'll only have ONE SERVICE this Sunday, our 9:30 am service.
We will not have Children's Church this Sunday.
Rumor has it that News 8 from Austin will be attending this service to see what Bee Creek UMC is all about! Hope you can join us! |

Checks can be made payable to: Bee Creek UMC with "Laura Heikes Christmas" in the memo line OR directly to Rev. Laura Heikes.

 And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the angel said to them, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:9-11
