Downtown in December on Dec 11th Was a Blast
Tubing, canal boat rides, great food, fun at the Myriad Gardens and Christmas lights!
Family Fun on Dec 4th
On Sunday, December 4, right after the late worship service, a group of fun-loving families joined in some family fun.
After a light lunch, ornaments were created and decorated by hand—one to hang on the Christmas tree in the sanctuary and one to take home. That fun activity was followed by tree decorating in the sanctuary and a Christmas movie. Nine Turkeys and a Ham!
Our Sunday School classes used their offering to buy nine turkeys and one ham to donate to the Manna Pantry to feed hungry families this holiday season! Way to go!
Trick or Treat for Manna Pantry
Trick or treating to help others
Each year, when Halloween nears, we go door-to-door in the neighborhoods near our church to collect canned goods and other non-perishable food for Manna Pantry. We have a great time, hauling wagons and collecting much-needed "treats" for others in our community. This year's event was a fun success.

Some of our youth toured several different kinds of churches on Sept 25, to see how others worship. Churches included:
