JOY TO THE WORLD
We will enjoy a live nativity program on Sunday, December 11th at 6:00 p.m.   Bring your lawn chair and some friends to experience the simple yet profound story of Christmas.

POINSETTIAS
If you wish to place a poinsettia in the sanctuary during the Christmas Season, order forms are available at all building entrances.  Order forms along with $11.00 for each poinsettia need to be turned in today.  You may place the order form and the money in the offering plate, give to Amy Bell or bring them by the church office.

CHRISTMAS CARD MAIL BOX
The “Lottie Moon Mailbox” is available again this year.  If you plan to mail Christmas cards to those in the church family, put your cards in the “Lottie Moon Mailbox” and give the money you would spend for postage to the “Lottie Moon Christmas Offering.”  Deadline to use the box is December 18th in the morning service.

OFFERING ENVELOPES
New boxed sets of envelopes for 2012 giving are available at the church.  Pick up your box of envelopes so that you can be faithful to worship God through giving in the New Year.  Also, you must use the envelopes if you plan to claim your contributions in filing your taxes.  The church can only report gifts listed on the church envelopes that are turned in.
