UPCOMING EVENTS: Our Thanksgiving Eve service is this Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. followed by a pie social. Our guest preacher for that service will be pastor’s son, Micah Raebel. Our annual Christmas Caroling is scheduled for December 21st from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Also, on the 21st will be the Christmas Cantata. We will have only service that Sunday and it will be at 9:00 a.m. with no communion. Our Christmas Eve services will be at 4:30 and 7:00 p.m. There is no communion for those services. Our Christmas Communion Day service will be at 10:30 a.m. It will be preceded by our Christmas Breakfast at 9:30 a.m.

ADVENT BY CANDELIGHT: Ladies the annual Advent by Candlelight is set for December 7th at 5:00 p.m. Tickets are available for sale at the Welcome Center. This event is for members and non-members. Invite your friends to come.

ALTAR GUILD HELP NEEDED: We need three people to help the Altar Guild in the early service and four people in the late service. The Guild keeps the sanctuary in working order. It sets up and takes down for communion. It changes the paraments and banners to stay aligned with the seasons. It decorates the sanctuary for Lenten, Easter, Advent and Christmas seasons. If you feel you can help with this service or have more questions, please contact Deborah Montgomery (972-921-5320) or speak with her after services. Thank you!

SAVE THE DATE! Our annual Children and Youth Christmas program will be happening on Sunday December 14, 2025, during the 10:45am service. Following the service, we will have a potluck to celebrate all the hard work of the kids! Parents, watch for more information coming soon!

TODAY’S FLOWERS: Today’s altar flowers are given by Ethan and Hannah Hernandez celebrating their 3rd Wedding Anniversary.

ALTAR FLOWER SIGN-UPS: We are grateful for those who give from their treasures to adorn our altar with flowers every Sunday morning. We know that sometimes it happens where two people want the same Sunday. If there is a desire for a trade, please call our secretary Stephanie who will then see if a trade is possible.

YOUTH RETREAT: Our annual YOUTH-GIVING retreat is coming up later this month from November 23–24th for all Jr. High and High School Youth! This 24-hour retreat starts Sunday at 12 pm and ends Monday at 12 pm and includes 3 meals, games at church, a fun outing, overnight at the Rutan house, Bible study, and a service project! The cost is $15. Please talk to Allison for more details!
