OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS
A reminder for Women Council Ladies to bring Valentine cards for the Elderly to our January meeting. It is once again time to bring your poinsettias in memory of your loved ones. Please write your loved one's name on the poinsettia, so we will know who they belong to. There will be a poinsettia presentation on Dec. 23 during the morning service. 5:00 PM. Monday, December 24 Christmas Eve candlelight service is planned. The early hour will allow time for you to be with family for the holiday. The Children's Church is once again going to be sponsoring the children from the Romanian orphanage. The cost is $20 per child. This will cover their Christmas gift and other needs to that child throughout the year. If anyone is interested in sponsoring a child, please see Lisa Nuhn. Many of the children are the same as last year. If you would like to sponsor the same child that you had last year, please let Lisa know.
