Please join us this Sunday, December 9, 2007 @ 10:45 a.m. for our annual “Hanging of the Greens”. On this 2nd Sunday of Advent 2007, we will be lighting the Avent Wreath and celebrating the candle of PEACE.

Special Chrismons will be presented to adorn the Chrismon tree and twelve members of the congregation will teach the meaning of the twelve Chrismons.

This will be a wonderful experience for teaching your family about the true meaning of Christmas. We look forward to seeing you on Sunday.
