| Kaboodle Sale - 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. |

LU MITCHELL
And CATCH-23
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6th 7:00 pm
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 7th 2:30 pm
In benefit performances at MCC of Greater Dallas
Witty - Wacky - Zany - Political Satire - Social Commentary - Real Fun Music!
"At first, when you hear the twang of her band Catch-23 and the old-school Americana roots-y twang in her voice, you assume her show will probably be just about as fun as watching granny's organ recital at the local Baptist church. But Mitchell will surprise you-her songs are just as down-home, rootin' tootin' groovy as anything you'd hear at the All Good Café or Poor David's, and her lyrics are less shtick-y than they are insightful. Take 'Love on the Internet,' the story of a couple who meets online and falls in love, only to have the love crushed due to the mores of Dallas social structure, as outlined by the highway system: 'She wrote/ Why not come to my house for the evening/ We'll send out for pizza, watch a video/ He was eager, til he found she lived in Plano/ and north of Loop 12 he would not go/ Oh, it's a sad, sad tale of one city/ where status draws the line I hate to say/ He would not go north of Northwest Highway/ She would not go south of LBJ.' This, from Mitchell's excellent album I'm Not Martha Stewart."
