A GIFT FOR JESUS
We enjoy giving to those we love at Christmas! Have you ever thought about what you might give to Jesus in honor of His birth? Of all the gifts we shop for, this can be one of our most joyful actions – giving to Christ.

In keeping with this thought, we are offering “Gold Boxes” for you to pick up and pray about. Your giving to Christ’s church will help us end our year strong. You are invited to return your “Gold Box” during the hymn following the Advent reading.

If you have a small child or grandchild, please allow them to take part in this sweet remembrance.

Your church thanks each of you for your generous giving all year round. A Gold Box gift is a way for all of us to say thank you to God, a way of acknowledging God’s gift of Jesus Christ for us.
Pick up your Gold box and return it with your gift during Christmas season.

Thursday, Dec. 6TH
9:30 am Luthersville Senior Center Join us as we journey to our favorite group for a meal and fellowship. We will have music, laughter, a meal together and fun! Questions? Contact the church office or Betsy Bagley.

CHRISTMAS ANGEL TREE
There are Angel Trees in the narthex and the Worship Center. Choose a tag/tags from one of the trees to provide a Christmas gift for a child in our community. It’s very important to sign your name on the clipboard sheet so we will know who has each child’s tag. You will find additional instructions on the back of each tag. The gifts are due by Dec. 9th. Questions? Contact Betsy Bagley at ebbagley@gmail.com.

DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? Our new crèche is placed & lit each evening on the front lawn of the Sanctuary. We began a new tradition this past Wednesday night of gathering to sing, pray and ask God to bless those driving by with love of Christ. Thank you to the combined efforts of church members and our Boy Scouts!
