Thanks so much to Ruth Weston for her interesting, informative presentation on Celtic Spirtuality last Sunday, November 21st. The class members appreciated the refreshments provided by the Lows and Paytons (Judith and Ed). Much appreciation to Judith Payton for a thoughtful prayer.
Next Sunday, snacks will be provided by the Russells and Shermans.
We recognized birthdays during this week – Sandi Gardner, Lynn Goodwin, Karen Holmes, and Mark Lee, as well as anniversaries – Mary & Ray Adams and Patti & Gary Smith. Happy, happy!
On Sunday, November 28th, we will begin Advent at Maranatha. Our study guide is entitled, "Blessings of the Manger", and it is based on the Revised Common Lectionary. The topics and primary presenters for the next five Sundays are: "The Blessing of God’s Future (Janet Purinton)"; "The Blessing of Peace (Paula Scott)"; "The Blessing of Waiting (Pam Low)"; "The Blessing of God With Us (Michelle Place)"; "The Blessing of Light (Barbara Loyd)". Thank you, so much, for voluteering to lead the class during this important season in our Christian year!
We look forward to seeing you this Sunday and every Advent Sunday to follow; invite your family and friends who will be visiting with you over the holidays to join us at Maranatha!
Have a wonderful, blessed Thanksgiving holiday!
