Church council will not meet this month.
Join in the fun Sunday the 18th as we go caroling at a local nursing home
and come back to the church for a soup dinner. We will meet at the church
at 4:00 and plan to be back to eat around 6:00. Look for food
recommendations in the near future.
There will be no Sunday school on December 25th or January 1st to allow
more time with family.
We are working to update our online directory. Please go to

their doors to the homeless tomorrow.
- A.J. Jones as he heals from a broken arm and praise God that his
tumor was benign!

John 1:20, “He did not fail to confess, but
confessed freely, ‘I am not the Messiah.’”
