THIS SUNDAY! IN SOCIAL HALL!

Follow Me (best suited for Pre-K and older)

This all-ages Sunday School experience happens from 9:00-9:45 AM in Fellowship Social Hall for the Sundays in December; the first week of each unit of the Follow Me curriculum will be entirely all ages and subsequent weeks in a unit will include time to break out into age groups by Pre-K, lower elementary, upper elementary, and adults with high schoolers (middle schoolers can choose if they would like to join upper elementary or adults and high schoolers). While there are themes for about 4 weeks, each week is something new so drop in for one or all!

(the breakout rooms for those Sundays are located on the second floor of the Christian Education wing are are well-marked)


KIDS' CHURCH THIS SUNDAY

Kids' Church (ages 4-4th Grade)

This adapted worship service happens from about 10:20-11:00 AM and gathers in the newly dedicated Kids' Church space of rooms 204 & 205 on the east side of the second floor of the Christian Education wing; this time helps kids become familiar with the motions of worship and why we do what we do so that, when they feel ready to sit through worship in the sanctuary or the chapel, they'll feel right at home and have an understanding of what happens as we worship God together.

(the most direct path is to walk through the double doors at the end of the north hall along the outside of the sanctuary, go up one-and-a-half flights of stairs, and then through one more set of double doors)

THIS SUNDAY!

Fourth and Fifth Fellowship

We are so excited to hang out on Sunday, December 4, from 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM in Fellowship Hall! We'll bake, decorate, and eat holiday cookies, do some get-to-know-you stuff, and play games. If your child has dietary challenges, just let Nicole know so she can take them into account. We will also need a parent (or two) volunteer for the day. If you can hang around, also let Nicole know!


ONE FORM FOR EVERYTHING

So we can be sure we are planning for enough adult leaders for all we want to do, we ask *you* to complete a single Child/Youth Information Form for all your kids and turn it in to the office ASAP.

BLESSING BAGS

On Sunday, November 20, our junior high and senior high students learned more about the needs of unhoused people as we made Blessing Bags to have with us when our families are out-and-about this holiday season, so we might be ready to encounter someone in need. We have about a dozen extra for anyone who wishes to come pick one up from the container in the Narthex.


And, if you would like to make your own, here's a helpful checklist, compiled with the wisdom of morewithlessmom.com, a woman who has experienced housing insecurity. You can read the full blog post on making blessing bags here.
