Announcements - December 1, 2024

Our first Advent Soup Supper will be Wednesday, Dec. 4, at 5:30 pm. A sign-up sheet is available on the bulletin board. Vespers will begin at 6:30 pm. Heed the word of the Lord; prepare for the Lord’s coming: make it your aim and goal to attend.

A special voters’ meeting has been scheduled for next Sunday, December 8th, following service, to discuss the Church roof. Please stay and attend as we discuss our options.

There will not be Men’s Bible Study & Breakfast in December.

The LWML will be hosting the Annual Cookie Walk on Sunday, Dec. 15, following service. Everyone is invited to bring cookies, breads, etc. They will be setting up on Saturday, Dec. 14, at 10:00 am. You can bring your tasty treats anytime on Saturday or Sunday morning.

Please consider bringing in a poinsettia for chancel decoration this Christmas. Poinsettias should arrive by December 23.

THANK YOU to everyone who donated for Christmas gifts to the Fort Wayne seminary students; we gave $790 in gift cards.

December Mission of the Month: This Advent, Our Saviour is suggesting each family fill a box with non-perishable for those in need to promote a spirit of giving instead of receiving. You may put an item in the box every day, or fill it all at once. Please return your filled box to the church and we will donate them to the food pantry.
