Greetings,
 
We have been praying and planning for this outreach for more than six months and we are excited for what God has in store! Would you like an opportunity to actually participate in this year's preparation? Check out our Christmas in the Valley webpage for many volunteer opportunities and sign up today.  Read below under "What's New" to discover the exciting changes being made for this year's event. Under "Hostess Hints" read how Sandy Martin's faithfulness to God's voice made an everlasting difference in the life of her friend. 

Sincerely,
The Christmas in the Valley Team
Valley Community Baptist Church

What's New?

Have you heard that we will be serving an elegant dinner this year?
 
Thanks to Valley's new chef and food manager extraordinaire, Todd Borelli, we will be serving an appetizer followed by an elegant dinner. The doors will open at 6:00 p.m. with service beginning as tables fill. There will be open seating and guests will be seated in the Fellowship Hall or the King's Inn (Room 305). So plan to arrive as a group between 6 and 6:15 p.m. so that you can enjoy a delicious and relaxed dinner with your guests.
 

 
Hostess Hints
 
Pray for God to build meaningful connections!
 
 
"No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and love is made complete in us." 1 John 4:12 
 
Do you have a co-worker, friend, neighbor or family member who seems restless and unhappy, but you're not sure if she will accept an invitation from you to Christmas in the Valley? Pray about it as Sandy Martin did last year and see what results God might have in store. You can read Sandy's story here.

After you have asked your guest and she has accepted, it's a great idea to introduce her to friends from church prior to the event. Then she can recognize some familiar faces when she arrives. If your schedule permits, plan a brunch or coffee date to gather your friends together. Have your church friends bring women they are inviting to the event too. Pray for God to build meaningful connections!

Note: If you have a Christmas in the Valley story to tell, email us at hjames@valleycommunity.cc!
