Help Decorate for the Christmas Season: Sunday, November 24, after the service

Collecting Trinkets for Santa’s Workshop:

We are now collecting trinkets—ornaments, costume jewelry, unused scented candles, etc.—for kids to buy (at a nominal price) and wrap at our Christmas at the Barn event on Dec 7. Donations of Christmas gift wrap also welcome. Items can be left in the marked boxes in the lobby any time during the month of November. Thank you for your help!

Christmas at the Barn: Saturday, December 7, 3-6 p.m.

Join us for a family-friendly celebration in & around our historic barn. We’ll have fire pits & s’mores making, hay wagon rides, cookie decorating, a kids’ Christmas store, fair trade shopping, and more! Sign up to volunteer here.

Advent Quiet Day: Saturday, December 14, 10 a.m.-3:30 p.m.

Give yourself the gift of rest in the midst of holiday busyness. Join us in the Barn from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. as we make space for God and open our hearts to the hope of the season. Through poetry, prayer, and scripture, we will reflect on the meaning of Advent and listen for how God might be speaking to us.

Monthly Makers Circle: Sunday, December 15, 11:30 a.m., in the Barn

Are you a maker, crafter, artist or simply creatively curious? Let’s have some fun! We gather on the third Sunday of each month after the church service to work on our own and/or group projects and spend time connecting with one another. All are welcome! Contact Kate Thomas (creativekate@gmail.com) for more info.

Book Group: Most Sundays, 8:45 a.m., room 203

The group will be reading and discussing God and the Gay Christian: The Biblical Case in Support of Same-Sex Relationships, by Matthew Vines. Everybody welcome! Meeting most Sundays. For questions or to confirm a specific Sunday, please contact Dave Martinsen (davidmartinsen@yahoo.com).
