Are your pies made yet? I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
On Friday, after all the food has settled and the shopping done(?), the Living Nativity will begin at 5:00, during the Home for the Holidays event. There are still some slots that could be filled, so if you want to stop in and find Grace Gehres in the youth room, she will costume you and send you out for a 20 minute shift. Your help will be appreciated.
Sunday, Nov. 29, is the first Sunday of Advent and the sacrament of communion will be offered during worship.
