SUNDAY WORSHIP
Dec 7 @ 9:30a
NOTE: NO BIBLE FELLOWSHIP - WORSHIP WILL BEGIN AT 9:30A
This Sunday we continue the Advent season as we look at the Gifts of Christmas. You see peace symbols on cars. You see people flash the peace sign. It would seem that our world is preoccupied with peace. But the peace the world is looking for is an absence of conflict. And although world peace is something we would like to see happen, what we need even more is an inward peace that only comes with a right relationship with God. It is through the birth of Jesus that we are offered the Gift of Peace.

LOTTIE MOON CHRISTMAS OFFERING
During the month of December
During this time of the year, we focus our attention on our International Missionaries. Each Sunday in the month of December, we will have a video focusing on some of our missionaries. We will also collect a love offering for our International Missionaries. Prayerfully consider how much God will have to give.

MERRY MAIL
During the month of December
Drop off your Christmas cards (with postage) in the Merry Mail box. And then check the table for any cards you have received. Please only drop off cards for people that are currently attending our church.
