Anyone singing in the choir for Christmas please note the time change.  We will be meeting at 9:15am on Sunday mornings.  

We will be joining together with the Woods Free Methodist Church and Green Country Church for a Community Thanksgiving Service on Sunday, November 24th at 6:00pm at the Woods Free Methodist Church (please note the location changed due to a conflict).  It will be a time of singing, sharing praises and moments of Thanksgiving, and a short message from Pastor Jim Williams.  This year we would also like to reach beyond ourselves and give an offering to Samaritan’s Purse for Hurricane Relief.

The Christmas Sharing Tree will be set up on November 24th and filled with name tags for you to take and shop for. There will also be a tree set up for Project Starburst.

Sunday, December 8th, following the morning worship service, which will be a service of music, kids hand-bell choir, and a short homily from Pastor Gary.  

We have reserved 15 spots at the Starting Place Restaurant in Big Rapids for Wednesday, December 11th from 12:55-1:35pm. If you would like to sign up to attend, please fill out the connection card this Sunday, and be sure to check which meal you desire (Pork Loin, Roasted Chicken or Shrimp).  If you won’t be at church and would like to sign up, please send an email to the church email or leave a message on the church phone ASAP.  Make sure to indicate your choice of meat.  

Thursday, December 12th (tentatively, times to be determined).  Parent’s, take this opportunity to go Christmas shopping or whatever you want to do, while your kids are taken care of at the church.  The kids will enjoy games, a craft and a snack.

The next UWF meeting will be Thursday, December 12th at 1:00pm.  Their special guest will be Larry Bise, who will be sharing in music.
