Chinese New Year and Lantern Festival Celebration
Samuel UCC will hold their Chinese New Year Celebration at Samuel United Church of Christ, 320 North Forsyth Blvd., Clayton, MO, 63105.
It is the time for us to celebrate this most important Chinese holiday with our Chinese friends who are far away from their home. It also will be a good opportunity for us to learn more about Chinese culture and what God has done in Samuel Church through our Chinese Community Ministry.
This celebration includes making dumplings, Chinese New Year dinner, Chinese cultural and talent show.
We warmly welcome you to join us for this annual event at Samuel, and please bring your family and friends as well. Since the Number 8 is a lucky number in Chinese culture, especially for Chinese New Year, a donation of $8 per person will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you and we wish you a blessed New Year!
