We are an open and affirming congregation and welcome the full participation of all people in our worship, service, and fellowship.

Food Room Contributions: Everyone is encouraged to  bringing a packaged or canned food offering (or other items not in need of refrigeration) to the sanctuary this Sunday December 1, 2019, as is customary to replenish our food pantry on the first Sunday of each month. Food will be distributed to families and individuals coming to the Food Room to provide needed food to those whose circumstances place them in need of supplemental food stuffs. Due to the lack of electricity at present, we cannot keep or offer to our clients items in need of refrigeration or freezing.

Adult Education.   Adult Education continues this week, 12-1-2019 @ 9:30 with worship following at 10:30. Our exciting video series, ProFuture Faith: The Prodigal Species Comes Home, gives us plenty of opportunity for discussion. Join us in Fellowship Hall-Parlor for discussion and fellowship in adult education before worship.

Children’s Education continues this week at 9:30  on the Upper Campus. This is the same time as Adult Education begins, so adults can attend the Adult Education  Most children will join the congregation for worship at 10:30  for a Children’s  Advent Processional and leave after the Children’s Time part way through the worship service for additional youth-oriented Christian Education.  Older children are welcome to participate in the entire worship service. Ushers can provide directions to the Upper Campus church school location.
