We are continuing our canned food drive for those who are not able to provide for their needs.   CYC’ers need to bring a can for a badge requirement, but everyone is invited to bring canned goods..  You may leave them in the Kitchen or in the Lobby. 

 

CYC will conclude the first half of the year at the end of January and we will have Honor Council on February 6.  Parents, be sure your child is completing his requirements.  See Squad Leaders with questions.

                 The  Church will be celebrating Epiphany. This

                  reminds us of when the Magi brought gifts to the Christ

                  Child.  We bring gifts to our Church.  Look around and see

                 what God would lead you to bring to your Church.  This

                 could be a table, playground or nursery equipment, paper goods

                 [paper towels, toilet tissue, Xerox paper], kitchen items,

                 craft materials or Christian Ed items, or whatever you see

                 needed.  You may place your gift on the altar or ask for help

                unloading and placing where needed.
