Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.

but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, forever. Amen.

- Sunday, December 7th we will observe communion. Typically, on Communion Sundays we are asked to give to the Deacons Fund. For the month of December, we are being encouraged to give to the Needy Family Fund.
- The Needy Family Fund has been around since the 1970’s and became an organized 501c3 in the early 2000s. This is a combined effort of many churches to feed families in need in the Sweetwater area. They are projecting to give out food boxes to 160 families this year, with an estimated cost of $40,000. Please consider your contribution over the next few days. We will have a separate offering plate out for Needy Family Fund.
- Remember our annual Christ Card Exchange. There is a list of members and regular attenders on the table if you would like to participate.
- The deacons have used all the mulch that is needed for the playground. If you would like to have any of the leftover, please let Don know and he will help you with it.
