Lets Talk about Scripture - Sermon Discussion
Starting Sunday TODAY from 11:15 - Noon
At a round table in the Reed Room, you can become
part of a discussion on the Scripture and sermon
of the day. Get some food and drink and feed your soul at the
same time!
THANK YOU! A heartfelt "thank you" to all who participated in our annual Angel Tree project. Through your generosity, many area children and seniors at Golden Living (The Cedars) had a very Merry Christmas. Here are excerpts from a few of the notes Aldersgate received from Golden Living. "Dear Santa's Helpers, May God bless you. We love you."; "You are such a blessing to us. We so much appreciate your kindness. May God bless you now and through the coming year." "Dear Friends, Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for all you did for our residents at Christmas. Their joy and surprise filled my heart to overflowing. Many folks cried and said they had never had a better Christmas. We are so blessed to have your assistance each year."
