A NEW LOOK! Today is the first Sunday in Advent, and you will

some of the Advent/Christmas decorations, incorporating the Advent liturgical

member of the Worship Committee, and Doug Myers for donating their time and
talents towards this effort. Sheila
specializes in liturgical art and Doug has his own interior design firm. Next week the Chrismon Tree, decorated by the

peace this Christmas season.
