COVID UPDATES

We have learned of another person testing positive for COVID, that was present at church this past Sunday. Although asymptomatic, their routine test came back positive on Monday. This person was serving in the children’s ministry on Sunday and has notified all individuals with whom they were in close contact at church on Sunday. They are now quarantining at home.

This Sunday, we will be holding in-person services at 8:45 and 10:45 with Livestream at the 10:45 service. We will not be holding children’s classes this Sunday during the 10:45 service.

END OF YEAR GIVING

We ask that any year end gifts to the church be submitted to the office by Sunday, December 27th in order to be recorded on this year’s giving statement.

Take time this day to reflect on the first coming of Jesus Christ and His love for us.

We encourage you to take a moment and reflect on this Christmas worship song.

HARK THE HERALD ANGELS SING

Join Pastor Josh as he gives some of the background to Hark the Herald, and how as we Step into Christmas, it’s important that we join with all creation to sing to our king.

Take time this day to worship Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah, who will reign, forevermore.

Step Into Christmas

Over the next eight days (building up to Christmas), we will be providing you with a Daily Worship Devotional intended to help us take another Step Into Christmas. We will be focusing on scripture, and a Christmas hymn/song that we sing as a congregation.

“Men’s Fraternity” Discipleship Group Graduation

Congratulations to Lou Driggs, Chad Miley, Kenny Rogers, Steve Reynolds, Dan Holmes, Adam Curry, Doyle Brower and Bob Jones for completing a 16 week men’s small group discipleship course.  During these 16 weeks the men participated in learning Biblical principles to become more like Jesus as men of God. They also developed specific plans on how to live those principles out in their family, church, jobs, and community. Thanks for making this commitment to grow and embodying the value of “Equipping One Another”.

Pastor Dan shares about the Christmas Giving Project, and also some important news concerning gatherings and COVID-19.
