CHILDREN’S SUNDAY SCHOOL
Sunday School
Assistants
In order to ensure the
safety of our children and their teacher, Mary Wilkie and the CE
Board are seeking volunteers who would be willing to be the second
adult in the Sunday school class. There is no planning required.
Mary plans and teaches all the lessons.
This is not an every
Sunday job! The more volunteers we get, the fewer times you will be
asked to assist with the class. This is a wonderful opportunity for
adults in our congregation to spend some time with our children.

 FIRST
SUNDAY NIGHT SPIRITUAL MOVIES
“Noél” December 2nd 6:30 to 9:00 PM
“Noél” is a film to
remind us that “Miracles are closeer than you think!...As five
strangers’ lives intertwine on Christmas Eve, a story of
companionship, love, and healing unfolds against the backdrop of New
York City. Director Chazz Palminteri has woven a delightful tale of
redemption, faith, and the joy of living!”
An all-star case includes
Susan Saradon, Penelope Cruz, Paul Walker, and Alan Arkin.
This is a film, that
informs our hearts, minds, and spirits! Free Popcorn!
We’ll be in the comfy Gathering Space!
[AND...if you’d like to see one of the last two months’ specials
“Peaceful Warrior” and “Pay It Forward,” those DVDs are now in the
Library to check out.]

Mission and Outreach
Board
We are asking for all of our members and friends to open their
hearts and wallets this giving season. Please help by choosing from
the Giving Trees that will be in the Gathering Space. There will be
multiple opportunities for each of us to brighten the lives of many
this holiday season for the guests of Latimer House, Homeward Bound,
Catholic Outreach and the ever popular Warm and Fuzzy Tree.
The Warm and Fuzzy Tree
items consist of hats, gloves, scarves and or a warm coat of any
size. These gifts will be distributed to the organization with the
most need this year.
Catholic Outreach
needs our help with story books and pajamas for infants to age 7.
Homeward Bound’s
cupboards are in need of restocking. Please consider commercial size
can goods (available at Sam’s, City Market, WalMart, etc.). Grocery
gift card or checks made to the church with Homeward Bound on the
“For” line would also help to defray the ever burgeoning food costs
they face daily.
Latimer House has families
with needs. Please check the tree to select an item that will be
appreciated.
All items will be delivered on Friday Dec. 21st by your M & O Elves
in time for the big day.
[M & O received a letter from the Salvation Army offering many
volunteer opportunities in the months of November and December. If
you haven’t seen it , please check the bulletin board on your way to
coffee. This is another way we can help others by giving of our
time.] |
