What can I expect on Christmas Eve at Shadow Rock?
Christmas Eve is behind us but we have some answers to the question.
One Answer: We had a meaningful and joyful time together on Christmas Eve. We are grateful to so many people who made the evening bright, warm, and profound. This includes band members, singers, ushers, safety team, decorators, sound and tech volunteers, worship leaders and readers, and all the hours of preparation. Many things happening behind the scenes to make the evening a great experience. Thanks again!
Another answer: The above photo is a moment from the pews. The mother whispers, "Please, don't catch your sister's hair on fire." The picture is the sister's response.
And still, another answer: We dedicate our offering on Christmas Eve to the Pastor's Charitable Fund. It is the one time a year we replenish the fund. What is the fund?
This fund is used in times of crisis and has provided groceries, utilities, rent assistance, and car repairs. Additionally, the fund has been used to help families bridge a financial gap between periods of employment, thus preventing situations of homelessness. These things are done in the name of Shadow Rock UCC and can only be done because of your support. In every instance, we do our best to maximize the stewardship of your support to the Pastor’s Charitable Fund. You have been generous every year and many people are grateful. Thank You!
