THIS WEEKS SERMON
Sermon: "Understanding His Answers"
Scripture: Luke 2:41-52
SERVICE SPOTLIGHT
To all who donated blankets or volunteered for our Center of Hope Christmas booth! Adults and kiddos in our county will sleep well tonight because of your donations. Warm thanks!

WHAT'S HAPPENING
Bob Would Be Proud
Bob Bull was a tireless voice for people in need, and the church wide coat drive is a part of his legacy of ministry to the least, the lost and the last.
 
Your generosity is amazing! To date you have contributed 124 items for the coat drive to provide warmth for the homeless of our area. Anyone who sees the coats that have been donated will know what a generous congregation we have. We’ll continue to collect gently used coats through mid-January and distribute them to area ministries that serve the homeless. You may bring coats to the church and put them in the Coat Drive bin in the Narthex.
AUMC T-SHIRTS AND SWEATSHIRTS
Need to do a little Christmas shopping? Check out the long sleeved t-shirts and sweatshirts with Aledo United Methodist Church logo. They are available in the Narthex. T-shirts are $20 and sweatshirts are $25. Get yours while supplies last!
