Deadline for orders will be Sunday, November 10.
Order forms will be at the church on Sunday, November 3rd or by looking on the church website. Grab your order form and check out the options! Order and pay when the wreaths arrive at the end of November.

SUNDAY SCHOOL HELPERS NEEDED
The Sunday School is GROWING! Come and join us as we learn and grow in our faith. We could use the extra help during lessons when we have stories, crafts, songs and discussions. We have a lot of fun and want to share with the congregation what we do. There is a sign-up form on the bulletin board in the fellowship hall. If this seems like it might be for you please see Susan Campbell-Halley for a Volunteer Job Description.
We have been learning from Adam Hamilton’s Simon Peter for several weeks now. As one of the Sunday School teachers I have had the pleasure of leading our group in activities and discussions that have reflected these lessons. It is wonderful to witness the children engage and share their thoughts. As a parent I have had the joy in hearing my son describe to me and explain the lessons taught by Linda and see the joy it brings him to share it with others. I am very proud to be working and learning with these children and I invite anyone who would like to come and join in all that is happening with our youngest members!

The events are the Conval Craft Fair, Sat Nov 16 10-5, and the Holiday Stroll, Sat Nov 23 10-2. You will have handouts for HHAW, MATS, the Food Pantry, and End 68 Hours of Hunger.
