Exalting Our Savior - Equiping & Edifying Saints - Evangelizing Sinners

From the Pastor’s Pen:

Dear Church Family:

It’s hard to believe Christmas is already here again. It seems like it’s just been a couple of months since it was Christmas last year. I guess that just goes with getting older. I wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas! And, most importantly, Happy Birthday Jesus!

We have a lot going on during the month of December. Here are just a few of the activities: The Adult Choir will present this year’s Christmas Cantata "Heaven on Earth" on Sunday morning, December 18 during the morning worship service. The Children will also present this year’s Christmas Program during the evening service followed by gifts and finger foods. On Wednesday evening, December 21 our Youth will present their Christmas Program followed by a brief candlelight service. On Christmas morning we will have one service only. We will have morning worship at the usual time of 10:50. There will be no other activities on Christmas Day. Our annual Staff / Deacon and Spouses Christmas Supper will be Tuesday, December 27 at 6:00 PM at the Parsonage. There will also be no Wednesday evening activities on Wednesday, December 28.

Revival services were great with Brother Tim Knotts. Tim did a wonderful job preaching God’s Word for us each evening. Attendance was pretty good even with the bad weather that week. Thank you for your faithfulness.

Remember, I love you all and look forward to seeing you in God’s House!

In HIS Service,

Preacher Gary
