The December newsletters will be sent out later this week. Please take some time to read through them and check the church calendar. We have a lot of upcoming and ongoing events, and we don’t want you to miss out on anything.
Starting this coming Sunday, the 2025 offering envelopes will be available for pickup. Jill will be in the Elevation room before and after services for a few minutes. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
There are only three ROCKs left for the year. The ROCK will meet this week to celebrate Thanksgiving and have dinner. They will meet again on December 4 for a trip to Lights on the Lake, and on December 11, they will have their Christmas celebration. We need your help in providing gifts for all the kids for this special night. Envelopes are available on the board in the Elevation room. If you have any questions or need more information, please see Ashley. Additionally, if one of your New Year’s resolutions is to volunteer more, let Ashley know if you’d be interested in helping with the ROCK on Wednesdays!
The church office will be closed from Thursday, November 28, to Monday, December 2, in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. All calls and messages received after 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 27, will be returned on December 3.
