Dear Families,

What a fabulous time we had on Sunday! It was so much fun and so wonderful to see everyone together! ❤🎄

This Sunday

Join us for our Journey to the Manger! We will meet in the back of the Life Center at 10am. Then, we will travel around the building to collect our nativity friends as we read scripture and sing Christmas carols. We will end back in the Life Center to assemble the giant nativity scene and have some cookies! **Parents are asked to attend with the children – we will need some assistance transporting the large nativity figure on our journey! 

Worship services at 9am (Rejoice!) and 11am (Sanctuary). Nursery care available.

Other Notes and Info

Yesterday, all preschool-elementary families (ages 3-5th grade), should have received an email from me regarding our upcoming milestone classes that will take place in January-February. If you did not receive the appropriate notes, please let me know! We are still looking for some leadership in a few of the classes. These important series will begin on January 8! Please read over the grade specific letters and make note of extra important dates for your child’s specific class!
