Each Sunday of Advent leading up to Christmas, join us after worship in the Great Hall for special Advent Activities! ALL ages welcome!

Pick up your child from the Glenna Hall after church. Continue to help tie the fleece blankets in the Great Hall after worship every week of Advent!
December 8 – Connect to Scripture Connect 56 class in Glenna Hall. Meet after the "Time with Young Disciples"; look for me with the Connect 56 sign-in sheet. This month, we will talk about Joseph's coat and how having faith and hope doesn't mean that there will be no hardship and grief.
December 15 – Connect to Worship Stay with family for the Annual Christmas Pageant! There will be a special worship worksheet this week. Parents will receive an email with the document to print.
