THANKSGIVING BASKET WRAP-UP: Today promptly at 2:30 p.m. in the Junior Room. We will discuss this year's program—what worked well, what didn't—and how we can improve the ministry next year.  We want our projects to reflect God's true character and to bring honor and glory to His name.  There is a part for everyone who wants to get involved, young or old, handicapped or able-bodied, rich or poor.  Please come, we need your ideas and talents. We can dream much bigger when we work together and let Him lead our projects. What do you dream about doing for God? Come share. 

LIVE NATIVITY: Dr. Ray Sauls and his farm animals, including Fatima the camel, will be here on the side lawn today at 3:00 p.m. Invite family, friends, neighbors, etc. Come for the fellowship—and the hot chocolate!
