This Sunday, 11/23 - We will be decorating the church for Christmas immediately after worship. We are asking folks to choose one decoration to assemble, install, and/or display and work in teams of two or three for larger or more complicated decorations.

Dear friends in Christ, This Sunday we celebrate Hope Sunday, the first Sunday of Advent. Advent is not the beginning of Christmas, it is the beginning of waiting. Of hoping. Of anticipating.
