THIS SPECIAL WEEK AT HOPE
Tomorrow | December 22
Children’s Advent Drama & Children’s Ministry
Please join us (and invite family and friends) for our Family Service, tomorrow, December 22. On this 4th Sunday of Advent, the kids of Hope’s Children’s Ministry will be narrating and dramatizing the life of our “Upside-down King.” From his wildly unexpected birth, to the humble way he led and served, to giving up His own life so that the world could have abundant life through Him, expect to be blessed by the good news of our Upside-down King through the eyes of our children.
Special Music
Tomorrow | Christmas Choir. If you are interested in practicing with our Christmas Choir, meet with us after the Service tomorrow, December 22. Joel will provide sheet music for two Christmas songs for you to take home and practice. You will also receive a YouTube video list to help you get the feel for the music.
Kids Choir. This Christmas Eve, we are excited to have a children’s song performance during the 5 p.m. Service. Children (and parents) interested in participating or helping, please join us after church tomorrow to practice.
Youth Group
Join us after the Service tomorrow for a festive Youth Group filled with Christmas treats, games, and fun! This is a perfect chance to bring friends and celebrate the season together. This gathering will be the last of the year. Our first meeting in the month of January will be Sunday, January 12. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Conner. We can’t wait to see you soon!
Christmas Eve | December 24
We welcome family and friends to this beautiful 5-6 p.m. Candlelight Service to celebrate the birth of our King! Please note: there will be no children’s church or childcare provided, however, families with young children are welcome to use our baby sky box.
YEAR-END GIVING. Thank you to the many households who have blessed Hope in past Decembers with extra gifts to supplement our monthly income to fund the ongoing ministries of Hope. Last year’s December giving contributed significantly to help us finish our Sept 2023 – Aug 2024 ministry year cash positive!
Will you please spend time with God this month to ask Him if He would like you to bring an extra offering for Hope and then respond to how He leads?
Love,
Hope’s Elders
