Advent Breakfast – November 28, 8:45am
On the first Sunday of Advent, we will gather for a delicious breakfast prepared by our favorite chefs, Suzanne and Michael Hogarth. There will be no Church School classes that morning. Children join their families for breakfast and an Intergenerational Advent program.
Email the church office at [email protected] or sign up at the Welcome Center so we can better estimate attendance. An offering will be received to cover the cost of the meal.

Hanging of the Greens – November 30, 5:30pm
The entire congregation is invited to participate in The Hanging of the Greens, on Tuesday, November 30. Pizza will be served at 5:30, and then we will decorate the sanctuary and the building for the holidays. Children can participate. It is fun for all!
