Opportunities Abound to Share the Gift of God's Love this season:

The Angel Tree ministry needs your help!  We have about 20 ornaments left, which means 20 children need our help to brighten their holidays.  Please take one (or several) of the remaining ornaments this weekend.  All gifts need to be returned by December 9

Cookies for the Church of the Common Ground are needed. We need 55 dozen cookies we'll deliver to the Church of the Common Ground on 12/16.  You can drop off cookies anytime before 10am on the 16th.  READ MORE>>

 

Join us for on December 9 for a Service of  Nine Lessons and Carols.  This well-known and well-loved liturgy anticipates the birth of Jesus by telling the story of the fall of humanity, the promise of the Messiah and the birth of Jesus in a series of short Scripture readings. The readings are interspersed with carols sung by our wonderful choir and hymns sung by the congregation.
