Please pick up your poinsettias after church on Sunday. They are beautiful and need your help to stay beautiful. 

"After 3 or 4 years I am officially passing the "changing of the sign" torch to anyone who will do it.  It's not a bad job, 15-20 minutes a week tops and often even less time involved. It can be fun and also count as service hours if you are a Crosby Scholar. Thanks & Happy New Year to my church family, Walker Stephen

Who doesn't love a Christmas Card to feel like others are thinking of them during the season? 

Get the whole family involved while you are spending time with them during the holidays to think of others who don't have the privilege of spending as much time with their family!

PINC women's group will be sponsoring a Christmas Card Express for our church family and friends.

If you would like to participate without the high cost of postage, there will be a mailbox for this purpose in the education wing near the entrance ramp to the sanctuary for your use. PINC members will sort these each week and get them to members, shut ins, and all. We hope that you will take advantage of this way to honor our members whether active, home bound, or in assisted living.

 

Please try to have your cards in before Christmas!

Youth Activities!

We have a busy December ahead of us in the FCC youth group. 

First, we want to say thank you to everyone who came out to support us for Cocoa and Carols!

If you would like to learn more about the youth group, or want to know how you can get involved, please do not hesitate to email me at  mundkm12@wfu.edu with any questions or suggestions. 

Reminder: There will be no Youth Group on  Dec. 27 due to Christmas break! (We also will not meet for  Sunday school on  Dec. 24th.) 

Peace!

The holidays are here. Please consider sponsoring meals for families in need. Each meal box is $32 and feeds a family. Checks can be made payable to First Christian church with "New Communion" in the memo line. 

You can listen to Ken Massey's sermons online here: www.sermoncloud.com/firstchristian. A big thanks to Andy Askew for recording the sermon audio every Sunday!

No choir December 24th or 31st. 

New Communion

It's peanut butter and jelly time! FCC members have been asked to make peanut butter and jelly a permanent staple in your grocery carts to help stock the mobile food truck on a regular basis. Please make sure they are in plastic containers so they do not break. We are making a difference in helping to feed hungry people in our community! Keep up the good work!  Check out the New Communion bulletin board across from Taylor Hall for volunteer opportunities and the distribution schedule.

The shelter has a year-round list of needs that are always appreciated. They especially have shortages of men's deodorant, toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, and socks.  Food items are canned meats and #10 size canned fruits, vegetables and applesauce. Please place your items next to the white bin in the foyer outside the office or in the church office.
