Tickets for the 48th annual Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival will be available to church members this Sunday, December 22, before and after church in the Folsom Room. Each member is allowed six tickets.

There will be no education hour on Sunday, December 22. Instead, all are invited to the Folsom Room at 9am for fellowship and refreshments as we sing Christmas carols and enjoy hot cocoa (or coffee). This is a chance to sing all your favorite carols that you might not get to sing in church on Christmas Eve. All are welcome!

Cassidy Cwiertnia is away this Sunday, so there will be no sign language translation available for worship on Sunday, December 22 or for the Christmas Eve services.

This year our Special Christmas Offering will go to support the work and mission of Crossroad Child and Family Services.

Crossroad Child & Family Services has been a place of hope and healing for children and families since 1883. With deep roots in the community, Crossroad is committed to helping young people and their families through life’s toughest moments. Whether it’s providing a safe and nurturing home through residential care or offering guidance and support through therapy and specialized programs, their compassionate team walks alongside every child and family. At Crossroad, the goal is to inspire brighter futures by fostering resilience, healing, and hope in a caring environment where everyone is valued and supported.

Crossroad has a covenantal relationship with the UCC and Plymouth has proudly supported their work for many years. They truly provide sanctuary and hope to children that would struggle to find it anywhere else. Please consider giving to support their continued mission and ministry. For more information you can visit Crossroad Child & Family Services, Inc.

The offering will take place on Sunday, December 22nd during worship. Please use the special offering envelops provided. To make your donation online, use the button below, and select 'Crossroad Christmas Offering' from the drop-down menu.

While the city opted not to use Plymouth as an overflow shelter space for families this winter, we can still help with the emergency shelter efforts. The city is in need of supplies for the family overflow shelter-- you can use the Amazon wish list below to donate!

The Disciples Peace Fellowship (DPF) has opened its annual application process for its 2025 Peace Interns. Peace Interns are young adults who provide educational and program support at church camps and other church-related assemblies and events about peace and justice issues, serving as counselors and resource people, and modeling the lifestyle of peacemakers for youth and adults alike. In recent years, Peace Interns have also partnered with Disciples Justice Ministries groups to work on specific projects in the name of living out the gospel imperative for peace and justice. Folks 21 and older can apply and learn more at https://www.disciplespeace.org/apply.

Applications are due January 31. Please share with any young adults who may be interested. Rev. Timothy is the co-moderator of the DPF Executive Committee (and a 2004 Peace Intern) and is happy to answer any questions you may have!
