Blessings and a joy filled Thanksgiving
Blessings and a joy filled Thanksgiving to you all! We are entering the holy days of Thanksgiving, Advent and Christmas. A time for giving thanks for the blessings in our lives and a time for gift giving. When you are counting your blessings and making your gift list, please don’t forget to include your church. We need your help to have a strong ending of 2017.
This coming Friday — no Bible study. We will start up again on Friday, December 1, at 10 am. December 3 is the First Sunday in Advent. Advent is the season of preparing for the coming of Christ at Christmas. At 5 pm on December 3, we will gather for a pot-luck dinner and decorating the church for the Advent-Christmas season.
Also on December 3, at 3 pm, we will gather at the church to celebrate the life of Greg Giovanetti. Greg died from a heart attack on November 1 while sitting at the bus stop, He has been a faithful part of our congregation for a number of years. We will certainly miss Greg.
Blessings to you all,
Pastor Steve
