COMMUNITY BREAKFAST, WORSHIP AND ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

On Sunday, May 1st we will be having a short annual meeting for the congregation, but before the service starts we will have a Community Breakfast outside on the lawn for all ages. Whether or not you plan to attend the service, you are invited to come for 10am have your (likely second) breakfast and take part in activities that will range from signing cards for people in the congregation to drawing all over the sidewalks with sidewalk chalk (the more artists of all ages the better!) We’ll also invite those who are interested to share thoughts (with stickies) about our faith (creating a community prayer together) and where we are going as a church. For those who decide to stay for the worship service and short meeting, there will be a second opportunity to share food together outside at the end.

For more information contact Rev. Emily.

The Fourth Sunday of Advent “A Mother, Once Dreaming”

December 20, 2020

Sunday, December 20, 2020

This Sunday is our last Sunday before Christmas. We light our final candle, the candle of Love. Today parents and their kid’s and youth will lead us in our Advent wreath candle lighting.

Our service this morning will include hearing Mary’s song (The Magnificat), along with a quartet by our section leads of an arrangement of “Away in A Manger.”

For those joining on Zoom, we will be greeting one another with the Peace of Christ, and also hearing Dr. Maya Angelou’s poem “Amazing Peace: A Christmas Poem.”

Our Stories and Crafts program will be shared at 9:50am on Zoom – a little earlier because it is slightly longer than usual. It can also be watched any time on YouTube. We hear the story of the birth of Jesus, and features a finger puppet nativity set.

Don’t forget about our Carols by Candlelight service tonight at 7pm! Friday’s email includes information on how to give to Out of the Cold at Eastminster, as well as the Service Order.

Look for emails on Tuesday and Thursday for more about:

Christmas Eve for the Littlest Ones (available on YouTube all day)
