/CommUNITY Dinner &
A Very Benevolence Christmas Kick-Off
Everyone is cordially invited to join us for a wonderful CommUNITY Dinner on Wednesday, Nov 10 at 5:30PM at The Crossroads Center. Menu will be the traditional holiday fare of turkey, dressing, gravy, roll and veg. We will begin taking reservations on Sunday, Oct 31. A donation box will be out to help offset the cost of the meal. Proceeds from our meal will go towards our Benevolence Ministry Christmas program.
Our Harvest Pantry Wagon will greet you at the front of the CRC to accept canned goods & other items that will help fill Thanksgiving boxes for those in need in our community. Items requested are canned yams, stuffing, instant mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, etc.
A Very Benevolence Christmas will officially kick-off that night with our team ready to assist as you pick an Angel from our Angel Tree. Our children come from our community of Crestview and this may provide them with the only Christmas they will receive this year. Please consider participating in this wonderful FUMC tradition!
Tacky Christmas Sweater Contest will take place at the stage of the CRC at 6:00PM! Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place. Prepare to foo-foo that festive sweatshirt in the back of the closet- you may win! (Please no glitter per the campus facility regulations.)
ALSO- as if this evening couldn't get any better- our Winter Small Group Book Fair table will debut their new studies coming out in the New Year. Peruse our offerings and sign up, we're saving you a seat!
AND.... AND... AND we are planning for a special guest to make an appearance. Think North Pole sugar cookies and a lot of red and you get the idea. Mrs Claus photo op will be available on The CRC stage beginning at 5:30PM.
Church Council, youth and children will all meet at 6:30PM.
We can't wait to see you there!
