Thanks to those of you who went with me to serve at the St. Louis Area Food Bank last week. It was great to serve alongside you as we pursued the good of our community. I am planning on having the Prime Timers serve at least two times a year. I hope you will join us next time! I would also like to hear from you if you know of any other service opportunities that we might participate in. There is no mention of retirement in the Bible and we need to continue to serve the LORD until we go to see Him face to face!
We have a good group signed up to go to Old Town St. Charles for Christmas on December 4. Please sign up if you are going. Lunch will be at Lewis and Clark’s, followed by watching the parade and meeting a Santa representing every nation. There are bonfires, freshly baked cookies at Grandma’s Cookies, carolers, carriage rides, and a variety of shops to visit. The bus will leave church at 10:30 a.m. for lunch at 11:00 a.m. at Lewis and Clark’s. It will certainly put you in the Christmas spirit!
Speaking of Christmas spirit – we need to remember the greatest gift the world has ever received. We give gifts to others because God gave us the gift of Jesus. Our annual Angel Tree is a great way to share the love of Jesus (see details below)!
