BRING IN YOUR COATS!As you go through your closets and attics, and dig out the winter clothes, take a moment to find the coats that you and your family have outgrown or no longer wear. The Warm Coats From Warm Hearts program will see that your gently used coats go to those in the valley who need them most.

We have begun the Warm Coats program early to try to meet the needs of as many people as possible. Donation boxes are located throughout the building where you can drop off your gently used coats for distribution to those who need them. Thank you in advance for your help!

Marriage is a universal practice. It is a consciously made choice. In fact, approximately 90% of the US population will marry. However, nothing as popular as marriage has ever been beset with such problems. Marriages are failing at an alarming rate and the divorce rate is up. Counselors say bad communications underlie almost all problems which lead to divorce. In these lessons we will investigate the differences between men and women, and learn to more effectively communicate with our spouses.

Today is a special time at Mayfair, we gather as the family of God to celebrate and give thanks for the coming of Christ.

We are glad you are here for an inspirational time of worship this morning, and we hope you return for a joyous telling of The Story of Jesus by our children tonight.
