Our Christmas Eve Service will be based on "Lessons & Carols" that began in 1878. Check out the history on Wikipedia & then be sure to join us on 12/24 @ 6PM The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols is a service of Christian worship celebrating the birth of Jesus that is traditionally followed at Christmas. The story of the fall of humanity, the promise of the Messiah, and the birth of Jesus is told in nine short Bible readings from Genesis, the prophetic books and the Gospels, interspersed with the singing of Christmas carols, hymns and choir music. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Lessons_and_Carols

In the past few years we have helped provide Christmas presents for a Headstart family. This year there is 1 family that needs help with gifts. The family is a single mom and little boy. The mom expressed that their only need is clothes for the little boy. He is a 5T so if you would like to purchase a clothing item please do so and have it at the church on December 16th. Respond if you will be helping out.

On Saturday November 17, we need help taking limbs to the city to be turned into mulch. We will load the limbs onto Tony's dump truck. We only need help loading and we will begin at 9:30 A.M. Respond if you can help.

This is happening at our retreat! Tony Cook Steve Lamch Michael Hegreberg
