Christmas Program Rehearsal

Seems there may have been some confusion about the children's parts in the Christmas service on December 20th. They will still have an opportunity to participate, but Mrs. Tammy & Mrs. April will be working with them on several songs and costumed parts for the service. Children should come to choir rehearsal on Wednesday at 6:00 pm if they wish to participate!

Kids singing...

Mrs. April began working with the kids on Wednesday to prepare to sing with the choir during the morning service on December 20th. All children are invited to participate.

If you are interested in singing with the group, they will practice again this Sunday during children's church and again on Wednesday, the 16th during choir practice. They will sing Away in a Manger.

This is an excellent opportunity for the children to give back to the church and show off their God-given talents! We hope you will all sing out loud!

Woohoo! Wednesday is coming soon!!

Each Wednesday during December we will do something to give back!

This week we will hear the story of Saint Nicholas and we will learn about a little girl named Michaela who lives in the Philippines. Michaela was selected by Rachel, Cassie, and Allie from Food for the Hungry. We have committed to sponsoring Michaela and will be collecting money for her each week. Michaela is 9 years old and in the 4th grade. She lives with her parents and 3 brothers. $32 a month helps provide Michaela and her family with food, health care, clean water, education, local church development and more. Each week we will ask one of the children to write a letter to Michaela.

This week, we will send Christmas Cards to Michaela and her family. Please pray for them. Even though we are thousands of miles away, our prayers can make a direct difference in their lives.

All Wednesday Programs Canceled this Week...

Due to the tornado warnings in effect, we will not meet tonight!

We were planning to make Christmas Cards for service members, veterans, and their families. This is a great way to give back this holiday season - by sharing kind words and thanks with those who have given a great deal to our country.

You could do this as a family project tonight! All of the info is available here:
