Happy Thanksgiving - November 22

Happy Thanksgiving,

I hope you are able to be with some of your loved ones on this day of gratitude.

On Thanksgiving Eve, we were anticipating the return of the Lawburgh family, but due to illness, they were not able to come. As a result, Emily L. volunteered to share some of her experiences from her trip to Israel and Turkey with a group led by Ray Vander Laan. She did a wonderful job and we had a great evening together and enjoyed some hymn-singing also. Afterward, we went downstairs to enjoy pies made by members of the congregation. There were some able-bodied young people available, so the Christmas tree was erected also.

Today we took the opportunity to worship and give some thought to the topic of gratitude. It was nice to see some folks back in the community for a visit. If you are interested in the sermon, just use the link on the right-hand side.

There are no new announcements, but a reminder that this coming Sunday is the day of the Advent Event, which will be held after worship. There will be a craft for young people, tree decorating, an auction, and, of course, food. Join us if you can.

God’s blessings to you and your family,

Pastor Stewart
