Celebrating Advent at Broadway..
An Advent Devotional Guide...
Disciples Home Mission has made available an on-line devotional guide for the season of Advent.  Written by Rev. Dr. Beth Rupe, Senior Minister of First Christian Church in Moline, IL, The scripture and devotional readings begin on Thanksgiving Day, so be sure to find a quiet moment on Thursday to begin enjoying The Season of Advent 2015. 


On December 6, Advent II...
The SERV Sale 
Just in time to help with those last-minute gifts - the SERV Sale returns to Fellowship Hall!  The SERV Sale is sponsored by Broadway's Service (Mission & Outreach) Ministry and all proceeds are used for international mission in partnership with Community Methodist Church and their Global Market.  There will be lots of inexpensive, unique and beautiful gift items to choose from - everything from jewelry to toys to hand-crafted bowels and baskets.  All items are "fair trade," which means that the producers of these unique items receive a better price for their handiwork, thus improving their lives and creating opportunities for other small-scale producers.  The SERV Sale will continue on December 13.    

Disciples on Campus Pancake Breakfast

Disciples on Campus (DOC) will hold a Pancake Breakfast at Broadway on Sunday, December 6, from 8:45-11:00 a.m. in Fellowship Hall.  DOC will use all proceeds to defray expenses of their January, 2016, College Mission Trip.  Come early and enjoy a pancake breakfast and support our college-aged young adults!

What Makes Goodie Sunday So GOOD? blueberry_tart.jpg
Very simple answer - you do!  Goodie Sunday is a Broadway tradition, going back many years to the pre-donut days!  On Goodie Sunday, December 13, everyone is asked to bring a treat to share with others. Whether you share a tried-and-true family favorite, or stop at Hy-Vee on the way to church, all treats are welcome and will be devoured gratefully!  

Poinsettia Sundaypoinsettias.jpg
On Sunday, December 13, Broadway's already lovely Advent decorations will be enhanced with dozens of poinsettias throughout the church.  If you would like to sponsor a poinsettia, check your church mailbox or pick up a form at the Welcome Center.  At the close of the final service on December 13, your poinsettia can go home with you or be gifted to one of our home-bound members. Each poinsettia cost $6.50.
