December News

Junior Leaders. Children's Ministry is looking for dependable 4 th – 8th graders who are willing to be a part of a team of mentors for our younger children. Fourth and fifth graders will help with various tasks during the once a month Kids Praise and Worship Service.  Fourth to eighth graders will have the opportunity to help during the 11:00 a.m. Sunday KIDS G.I.G. This will give your child the chance to demonstrate God's love, develop leadership skills, and serve their church.  Please contact the Children's Ministry office at 268-5549 ext. 20 for an application.

Birthday Bash! Get ready to party! Come and celebrate Jesus' birthday early with KIDS G.I.G.  All children, preschool to fifth grade, are cordially invited to a Birthday Party for the newborn King on Saturday, December 15 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Lunch will be served. This is a great opportunity for your child to bring a friend to church and both of them will receive a gift. Please call the Children's Ministry office at 268-5549, ext. 20 by December 6 in order to reserve a spot for your child.

Children's Christmas Eve Service. Tuesday, December 24, at 4:00 p.m., all children and their families are invited to attend the "Out of the Box" Christmas Eve Service.

We look forward to seeing you during this special time.
