Worship
December 20th at 10:00am
Happy Blitzmas!
Rev. Joanna Fontaine Crawford
This year, we’ve been exploring the history of the London Blitz, and finding parallels to our life in the pandemic. Christmas of 1940 found Britain under siege from air attacks by Germany – and still, they celebrated the yuletide. Perhaps we, too, “need a little Christmas.”
Join us for Worship at 10:00am: the link will be on the Live Oak homepage: www.liveoakuu.org
Join us for Fellowship Time immediately following the service (approx. 10:45/11:00)
Share the Plate
Share The Plate for Health!
Let’s be kind to the Kind Clinic
Our December Share the Plate community partner is Kind Clinic. Kind Clinic was founded with the vision of providing sexual wellness and health for all, regardless of race, creed, gender, or sexual orientation, without judgment or stigma. This month, all designated "share the plate" donations, and half of all undesignated donations, will be given to Kind Clinic.
November Recipient - Resolve $609.39

Help Distribute Food to Our Neighbors
Live Oak Church will be distributing food to our neighbors at Fresh Food Friday and need volunteers to help.
* Friday, December 18th @ 8:30 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. in the Live Oak parking lot. This is when we distribute the food to our neighbors. Volunteers are needed to set up, direct people to the drive through area, collect client information, and place food in the client’s trunk. You do not need to remain the entire 2 & 1/2 hours.
HCCM has asked for 7 people for each activity. We are asking you to please let us know if you will be able to participate in either activity, so we know if we have enough or too many people.
