Pastor's Update

Happy December, Parkway!


This year for our Advent Mission, we are partnering with Lunches of Love -- a group that fights food insecurity by making sure that students and families who rely upon free/reduced lunch are fed over weekends and long school holidays.


One of the ways we are helping Lunches of Love is to take a Parkway crew to their facility in Rosenberg on December 20th to do some on-site work. If you're interested, check out this form where you can sign up for a shift...

One other way we are partnering with Lunches of Love is by helping with their annual Reverse Advent Calendar food drive.


If you've ever done an Advent Calendar, for each day of the season you'll open a little door and take out a little message or treat as you count down the days to Christmas. But this reverse one works in the opposite direction -- for each day of the season you'll donate something to be put into the Advent calendar!


Take a look at the list below -- they're all small items that will make a big difference if we all work together! Keep track of each week's items when you head to the store and bring them with you when you join in for worship on Sunday. We're building a life-size Advent calendar for you to put your items into.

We're excited to make a difference in this part of our Advent Mission and hope you'll be a part of it the whole way through.


See you Sunday!
