Coffeehouse night
God has given us all the gift of music and verse. Let us celebrate this gift with a coffeehouse night on Wednesday, December 3, 8-10 p.m. Bring an instrument, a song to share, a verse to read, a story to tell. Bring a snack or refreshment if you like. We will make coffee and tea. Jess Elfring and Andy Rogers will be your hosts for the evening.
Nativity play
Are you interested in being apart of the Nativity play
this year? We have a great script to use and are in need
of some actors. It's going to be a lot of fun. Questions?
Contact Jess Elfring. Everyone is welcome to help out!
Outreach events
On the final two Sundays of the month — November 23
