Walking In A Winter Wonderland

The Winter Wonderland was absolutely awesome this year. A huge thanks to Gincy and the choir for ministering to us through music and to the TNT class for all their hard work getting all the delicious desserts, activities, and beautiful decorations together for us to enjoy. The hayride and see-saws were a huge hit with the kids, and of course everyone loved visiting Santa and Frosty. Merry Christmas!

Winter Wonderland

Please make plans to join us for our annual Winter Wonderland Festivities.

Choir Christmas Music Special

If you are 50 or older than we would LOVE to have you attend our next meeting. We enjoy fellowship and our meetings give us the opportunity to gather together with a great meal and enjoy one another. We catch up on what is going on in each other lives and every now and then challenge ourselves to have a little fun. We hope to see you at our next meeting which is...

Thursday, December 17th @ 10:00 a.m.

The Woodlee's chorus will be our entertainment, and we'd like for everyone to bring a wrapped Christmas ornament. We hope to see you there!

Christmas Drama 2009

This year's Christmas Drama was a success thanks to the many people who volunteered their time and energy. The presence of the Lord fell on the place and many lives were touched. The altar response each night was amazing and several people gave their hearts to the Lord! Praise God!! To everyone who had any part: actors, props, lighting, sound, altar workers & runners, parking attendants, greeters, ushers, and prayer warriors - THANK YOU! Please continue to be in prayer for those who gave their lives to the Lord.

Mission Trip

Please be in prayer for out Mission Team. They left early this morning to head to the House of Grace in Chiang Rai, Thailand. For the girls at the House of Grace this is their Christmas celebration, and we will be there to help and lead this year's festivities. Thank you for your wonderful prayers and support. Pastor Ronny will be leading this team and it consists of Beth Tarleton, Rachel Lockett, Hannah Brandau, Hillary Daniel, and Abby Compton. For some of this team, this is their first mission trip. Please pray for God to sue them to touch the lives of the staff and the girls at the House of Grace.
