Advent by Candlelight
Our annual Advent by Candlelight service will be held on Wednesday, December 6. If you are interested in attending please RSVP by emailing Debbie Giovinazzio (dgiovinazzo88@gmail.com). Advent by Candlelight is an opportunity for sharing a meal together as well as a time to start preparing our hearts and minds for Christmas. We will start the meal at 6:00pm and the service will begin around 7:00pm (dependent upon how quickly folks finish eating!). The service will feature a series of brief devotions, readings, and advent songs.

Sunday Morning Bible Study
The beginning of something is important. That is especially true when it comes to the Bible. Genesis is foundational to the whole Bible, and to every human life. Genesis tells us who God is, who we are, how things went wrong, and the plan that God has put in place to return the earth to the way it was meant to be.
Upcoming Sunday
For most people the word “repent” is not a comforting idea. Doing the work of taking a close look at yourself and seeing where you have failed is challenging. But the Bible encourages us to do this work to get ready for the Almighty God’s arrival. Here’s the good news: God will come in power to rescue you from the sin that affects you body and soul. Knowing how God will treat us when he comes is all the comfort we need.
