| Kaboodle Sale - November 9th and November 16th |
|
|
What's a Kaboodle? It's a collection of objects/things. Do you have objects/things at your home that are new or in excellent shape that you never use? Why not donate them to the church? We are having a Kaboodle sale for quality items (no clothing). This sale will enable you to purchase items for Christmas for a bargain! You may be able to pick up that little something for your co-worker or for that gift exchange. Just think, you can simplify your household and make holiday purchases that offset these tough economic times and benefit the church. It's a win-win-win! Remember these are new or like new items. Bring them to the Kaboodle Table in the Social Hall. Check out the goodies that may appear. |

| Hear a Concert: Promote MCCGD: Serve |
|
|
Can you do all three in an evening? Yes you can! You can hear one of the premier performances of Dallas' new mixed chorus "Resounding Harmony" when you volunteer as an Usher for the concert. MCC of Greater Dallas will receive acknowledgement for providing the ushers which means we get to make our church visible to this audience and chorus. You have the opportunity to serve the church and the community. The "Resounding Harmony" concert benefits the North Texas Food Bank. Will you help us serve and promote? Would you like to hear this awesome new chorus? You do not have to be a member of our Usher ministry to help with this concert. To volunteer, please contact the church office at 972-243-0761 or email office@mccgd.org or register at the Welcome Desk.
The concert will be Monday, November 24th at Caruth Auditorium at the Meadows School of Arts at SMU.
What is "Resounding Harmony"? This is a new 175 mixed chorus directed by Dr. Timothy Seelig. Resounding Harmony is a diverse group of men and women whose mission is to enrich and effect change in its listeners by sharing the gift of song through benefit performances for worthy causes and organizations; and by proclaiming the worth, dignity and equality of every human being though the harmony created. This concert is focused on feeding the spirit through beautiful music while feeding the body by helping end hunger in our community.
Members of MCCGD who sing with "Resounding Harmony" are: Wayne Davis, Edie Fletcher, Noel Tardy and Rev. Colleen Darraugh. | |
