There are 2017 Offering Envelopes for you that need
to be picked up. They are located in the front lobby.
Please don’t use any offering envelopes from 2016
as they are numbered, and that number may have
changed from last year. If you have not had enve-
lopes in the past and would like some, let us know on
the communication sheet or give the office a call. If
you have not turned in a commitment card for 2017, it
would be greatly appreciated if you would so we can
plan better in the future.

For kids Pre-K—6th grade
The Afterschool program had the best Christmas Break ever! The week
before Christmas we made Christmas ornaments. The children sang
Christmas carols at for the residents at Snyder’s Nursing home. They also
made foam ornaments and cards. During the week before Christmas they
learned about Advent. They learned what each candle in the wreath means
and that Jesus is the whole reason we celebrate Christmas. We finished
out the week with pajamas, cookies, hot cocoa and movie day.
The week after Christmas we went on field trips
to Cici’s pizza for lunch and the Skate Center. We
had an inflatable maze for a day and on Friday we
counted down the new year at noon with a balloon
drop! Coming up on January 28th the Afterschool
and Preschool are teaming up for a Paint Night
fundraiser! Details will be available soon!
Communion

Thanks so much for the prayers and cards during the passing of Doug on

family. ~ Wilma Payne
Just want you to know how much I enjoyed the fruit and gift basket that was
