9:30 AM ONE SERVICE ONLY ON NEW YEAR’S DAY
Blessings for the remaining days of Christmas and for the New Year. January 6 marks the Epiphany when the Magi visited the Christ Child and offered gifts to honor him. May we look for the child in all whom we meet and offer the gifts we have to spread God’s love into the whole world.
Thank you to all who made our services happen. Junior Warden Bill Larson and Ginny, Office Angels, Altar Guild, Flower Guild, Musicians and Choir, Eucharistic Ministers, Lectors, Ushers, Counters, Cleaning Crew and everyone who offered to help and joined in making the church a beautiful offering to the community.
In Christ,

Family Helped
Thanks to your generosity the family who needed help had a much merrier Christmas:
l was able to buy a coat at Goodwill for a grandmother and a
new coat for one child plus underwear and pajamas for 4 children. I bought 5 new coats for the family we discussed . Sales and the extra 15% off sale before 1 PM helped. They are wonderful stylin’ warm coats. All were delivered on December 22 along with pantry items from the
Melton household. The little goodie bags from the Posadas brought smiles and so did a bag of Little Cutie oranges.
Thank you so very much. I can t express the joy I felt from tne generosity and kindness shown. The people were so pleased.
