A blue christmas is here hope

Second, our Blue Christmas service at 7:00 PM.This very special service is for those who feel the pain of loss especially during the holidays.  We want them to never forget God is still there with them (and we are too!)

The Christmas Joy Offering has been a cherished Presbyterian tradition since the 1930s. The Offering distributes gifts equally to the Assistance Program of the Board of Pensions and to Presbyterian-related schools and colleges equipping communities of color. The Assistance Program provides critical financial support to church workers and their families. Presbyterian-related schools and colleges provide education and leadership development while nurturing racial and ethnic heritage. This has been a Presbyterian commitment for nearly 140 years.

TODAY IS THE LAST SUNDAY FOR THIS SPECIAL OFFERING!

LAST CALL!  We still have a few poinsettias left!  They are available to purchase this Christmas for $8.50.  All plants are ordered from Brookwood, a facility that enables citizens with special needs to work and contribute to society and their own self-esteem.  If you would like to order one, complete an order form and give it to our Worship Elder, Carol Beverlin.  All poinsettias will be displayed on Christmas Eve and may be taken home after the service. 

Order forms are available on the entrance table next to the orders of worship.
