3. We also have a couple Volunteer Opportunities here. One that is on a monthly basis and one that is short term...
• CLEANERS - We are in need of some more volunteers who would be willing to help clean the church once a month. Please see us at the Welcome Center after the service, and we will connect you with Phil and Retha who oversee that area.
• CHRISTMAS DECORATING - We have set 2 dates coming up that we could use some help decorating the church for Christmas. The first date, which is the heavier decorating day is Monday, November 24. A lot of items will need brought over from the 3-bay garage, there are many Christmas trees that will need assembled and fluffed. And depending on what gets done on that day will determine how much needs to be done the following Monday, December 1. They will begin decorating at 9:30a on those days, and would greatly appreciate help!
4. Congratulations to Pastor Skyler and Christian Nemier!! Their baby girl has arrived! We are so excited for them. If you would like to help support them, sign up for the meal train here.
5. We are planning to have the annual Church Christmas Party on Friday, December 12 at 6:00p! This is an event for adults and we invite you to come and bring a finger food to share and each person bring a wrapped gift to exchange! There is a sign up sheet for this event on the Welcome Center!
6. We have a Members Meeting coming up on Sunday, December 14, where we will present the 2026 budget, as well as a couple other things. We ask that if you are member of our church, that you take interest in and attend meetings that deal with the affairs of our church.
