The Stewardship Committee thanks everyone who hosted or facilitated cottage
meetings during the stewardship campaign. About 100 people participated in the
cottage meetings – an excellent turnout! Please remember to complete payments on
your 2008 pledges before the end of the year.
Children’s Christian Formation – On Wednesday evenings during Advent, Christen
Erskine and Lisa Persons will introduce children (and interested adults) to the
Taize service, culminating in a 30-minute Taize service led by the children from
7:40-8:10 p.m. on Dec. 17th.
Pastoral Care Committee hosted a luncheon for “wisdom bearers”, parishioners
aged 70 and older, on October 25. The twenty guests had a wonderful time
socializing and enjoying a delicious lunch prepared by Kenny Hilson. A “Rite 70”
ritual is planned for next spring as a way to celebrate entrance into this later
chapter in our lives.
Evangelism Committee – Our second Newcomer Reception for 2008 is scheduled for
Sunday, December 7 after church in the Brooks Room.
