Time for Christmas!

Dear Parents,

The lesson your children learned about this Sunday was more of a Lenten lesson than a Christmas lesson. Starting this Sunday, we will be concentrating on Christmas and the Christmas service.

This last week our lesson was about Jesus and his disciples in the upper room. He was sharing the last supper with his disciples. He also washed their feet. Usually the task of foot washing was reserved for the servant. There were no servants there that night, so the lowest on the social scale would be the one to wash feet. Jesus got up, tied a towel around his waist and began to wash the disciples feet. Even though Peter said no, don't wash my feet, Jesus said, If I don't wash your feet, you can have no part of me. Then Peter said, wash all of me! Jesus replied, "Only your feet!" He also shared with the disciples and us this command- Love one another. As I have loved you, you also ought to love one another.

We have the opportunity to show our love for Camp Killarney this Sunday! Bring your baked goods! Anything you'd like- cookies, bars, breads, sweet or savory- bring it to church this Sunday and we will have a bake sale or free will offering to support Camp!

Students in grades 5-7 will continue their study with the movie "To the Ends of the Earth" and practice Christmas with us also! "To the Ends of the Earth" is a movie produced by our church body concerning the work of St. Paul and his missionary trips.

Hope to see you Sunday! Invite your friends!
