Dear SPC,

South’s annual Advent Party, on Sunday, December 8, is always a wonderful evening of laughter, good food, friends old and new, children and adult crafting together, caroling and the lighting of our Christmas Tree.

As it comes up quick the Sunday after Thanksgiving weekend, please take a moment to RSVP now with Laura Giannone - legiannone@yahoo.com - or sign up in Fellowship Hall on the kiosk.

The fun will begin will begin at 4:00 pm, outside on the front lawn. There will be hot cider and chocolate and wine to sip.

From 4:15 to 5:15 pm there will be children and adult craft hour in the Chapel.

Everyone will gather outside to light the South Church Christmas Tree at 5:15 pm. It is wonderful to see the lights and the beauty of Advent as we sing together.

At 5:30 pm, dinner is served family style in Fellowship Hall. People sign up to host a table (bringing a main dish for 10 people) as well as to bring sides, dessert and wine. Tables will be set, juice and sparkling water provided.

Our famous Mediocre Ensemble, led by Doug Epstein, will play music during dessert. If you haven't played your instrument in years ... that's perfect!

Come with your family or come alone--one of the reasons this evening is so magical is that we are all together.

Please join us!
