ADVENT GUIDE PREPARATION BEGINS
NOW! This year Overbrookers are invited to reflect on what
this season of waiting means and to share those ruminations in the 2008 Advent
Guide entitled “Expectations - Waiting Hopefully?” Over the next few weeks please consider how scripture informs our
waiting. Think about past times of waiting and how they might enable you to
find deeper meaning. Ask questions of past, present and future periods of
waiting. Then set those reflections to paper – or an e-mail - and submit them
by November 2nd to Deb Bowsher and Lorie Ellett so our printed
booklet can be prepared. A sign up sheet indicating your intent to participate
in this project is in the Church office. Please call Deb at 309-0417 with
questions.
LISTENING ELDER FOR OCTOBER will be available for
