NO YOUTH FELLOWSHIP THIS EVENING. Christmas is a time to spend with family and friends. Youth are responsible for ushering next Sunday at the 10:30 service so there will be no evening meeting.

 

THE MEN’S BREAKFAST GROUP will not meet on December 27. A new meeting place will be announced in January.

 

OPEN SHELTER NEEDS HELP. The deadline for the HELP and HOPE project was last Thursday and the items we had collected so far were taken to the Open Shelter. However the box will remain in the Narthex for your donations of items useful all year: new sweatshirts & T-shirts (men’s, women’s and children’s – in all sizes!); toiletries (travel sized bars of soap, shampoos, lotions, toothpastes, shaving cream), toothbrushes, combs & brushes, women’s feminine items, disposable razors).
