STAFF CHRISTMAS LOVE OFFERING
In each pew there are envelopes designated as Staff Christmas Love
Offering. This offering is collected and divided between the Church
Staff (Secretary and Custodial Staff). This is the Church’s gift to them
at this time of the year. The offering will need to be in by December
22nd.
_______________________________________________________________________________
LOTTIE MOON CHRISTMAS OFFERING This offering will begin Dec. 1st and go through Dec. 29th. Our goal will be $1,000.00. Let’s have a personal goal to give a tithe of 10% of what we give our family at Christmas as our Lottie Moon offering. _____________________________________________________________________________________
IN HOUSE — CHRISTMAS CARD DELIVERY FOR CHURCH MEMBERS
We are renewing an old service! Address your Christmas cards to church members (only) — leave them in the mail box in the church foyer and drop the 46 cents
it would have cost you to mail them in the can beside it. This will go toward the churches Lottie Moon offering. We will have our very own postman who will divide the cards and deliver them to you during Sunday School. ____________________________________________________________________________________________
BAPTIST CHILDREN’S HOME CHRISTMAS LIST There is a list from the Baptist Children’s Home of items needed for the Children this year for Christmas. Anyone who is interested in getting an item or two on this list please check out the bulletin board in the hallway across from the Library. Pick out your item(s), do not wrap them and bring them to either the Church Office or Laura Pitts by December 8th. (If someone would be so gracious as to deliver these items to the Baptist Children’s Home it would be appreciated and would also allow us to collect up to the 8th of Dec.).
Feel the joy of knowing you have made some child’s Christmas brighter.
