| ADVENT SUPPLY PICK-UP NOV 22 All Things Advent: Even though we cannot be together to build our Advent wreaths, we will still have supplies for everyone who would like to engage in the season of Advent, so find those wreath forms and get ready! Your All Things Advent package will have lots of ideas and materials to use as we all try to slow down and enter this season of waiting and hoping. Pick up your package this Sun, Nov. 22 between 3:00-4:30pm at church. Someone will be there to greet you, so you can drive through with your mask on. Anyone who attends the in-person worship on Nov 22 can pick up then. If you are not able to pick up your Advent package, please email the church office or call and leave a message and we will arrange delivery for you. JINGLE BELL LEAP FROM HOME Everything is a little different this year–our annual Jingle Bell LEAP fundraiser will be virtual. Please register to participate then run, walk or stroll 3.1 miles (5k) any time between Dec 5-12th and our kids will win! We’ll be posting pictures, videos, and times online and have t-shirts for our first 100 registrants. No time to run or walk? Be a S-LEAPr and make a donation. BELIZE PECANS We have ordered our pecans, and they should be here soon. As usual, we have a few bags of extra pecans for sale because the vendor only sells complete, 24-bag cases. We currently have some extra bags of plain pecans pecans available for $11 per bag. If you’re interested in getting any of these pecans, don’t delay: once they’re gone, they’re gone. You may phone or email your order to Kathy at church |
