O. Smith Building, and we have two wagons available for those braving the chill. The van will also be going for those who wish to participate but want to do so in comfort. We will go caroling to those in our church family who have a harder time getting out to enjoy the holiday festivities. Then we will come back to the J. O. Smith Building to enjoy hot chocolate and cookies. Come enjoy this traditional Christmas activity! Acolyte Training

The 2019 Confirmation/Church Membership Class will begin Sunday, January 13, during the Sunday School hour. We will meet in the Library. Confirmation/Church Membership Class is for youth in sixth grade and above and prepares these young people for making a profession of faith in Jesus as Savior, entering into the professing membership of the church, and embarking on a life of discipleship. The class will be received into membership on Sunday, April 28. One of the highlights of the Confirmation/Church Membership Class is going to the Confirmation Retreat at Epworth By The Sea. This year the retreat will be March 1-3. Because this retreat fills up quickly, we need to get our confirmands (students) registered as quickly as possible. The cost is $60. Please contact Pastor Mike for more information and/or to get your student registered! Cub Scout Pack #519
