EVENTS

BETHANY CHILDREN’S HOME CHRISTMAS

The children’s Wish List will be posted on the board in the narthex and Charlotte will let everyone know when they need to be at the church. This has always been an awarding time of year for us to help with this mission.  If you have any questions, please contact Charlotte Fiedler.

PROJECT OUTREACH DRIVE

As many of you know, due to the government shutdown, SNAP benefits (also known as food stamps) are going to run out of funding as of Saturday, November 1. We would like to do a drive for Project Outreach to help our neighbors in need at this difficult time. I was wondering what items Project Outreach needs that they don’t always receive. They mentioned toiletries – body wash, men’s and women’s razors, shampoo and conditioner. Please bring in these items as you are able for the next couple of weeks. We will also put out a basket for them in the back of the sanctuary if you would like to make a cash donation. Thank you so much for your usual kindness and generosity!

POTLUCK DINNER

We will be having our potluck dinner on Saturday, December 13. Set up will be on Friday, December 12. We hope to see you there!

COVENTRY COMMUNITY CHORUS CONCERT

Hark, how the bells, sweet silver bells … Join us in the sanctuary on Friday, December 19th at 7:30 as the Coventry Community  Chorus fills our hearts with Christmas Spirit! Please invite family and friends to this delightful annual tradition!                                    

CHRISTMAS PAGEANT

We will once again be having our Christmas Pageant this year! It will be on Christmas EVE, Wednesday, December 24 at 4:00pm. We hope you can join us for this festive annual tradition! All are welcome!!

HYMN SING

On Sunday, December 28, we will be having a hymn sing! If you would like to give suggestions, please see the hymn sing sign on the table under the bulletin boards in the narthex. You can write 3 of your favorite hymns, and put your paper in the little basket. We hope to see you there!
