First of all I want to thank everyone who had a part in Sunday night's performance and the days and weeks leading up to it. I was so excited with the final production and I believe that God was pleased as well.

Guys, I am so proud of everyone of you! You learned the songs so well and sang out nicely; the speaking parts sounded good and strong. We really appreciate all of your hard work.

It was also very exciting to see several parents at church for the first time! We hope to see you back very soon!

Teen & Junior Christmas Parties

We are so glad that you all came out on Sunday and Monday night to enjoy the Christmas Parties with us. We had a great time eating pizza and brownie sundaes with the teens on Sunday night after church. The unknown destination was our home. I think that most of you had already figured out the unknown destination before you arrived. We hope that you enjoyed the left-right nativity gift exchange as much as we did.

Monday night was a fun time with the Juniors. The night began with a dress rehearsal for our Christmas program which is this Sunday night (December 20) at six o'clock. After finishing up with the rehearsal, we went over to the fellowship hall for another left-right nativity gift exchange. I think we all finally figured it out. Then we had a dessert buffet with pizza rolls and nachos/ cheese.
We really appreciate everyone who helped with desserts and stayed to help make sure that everything went smoothly.

Looking forward to seeing you tonight for a final Wednesday night practice before the Christmas play. Be here at 7:30 ready to get alot accomplished so that we can do our very best for Jesus!!!
