Advent Decorating and Luncheon
Make sure to stay after the service on Sunday, December 4 for our Hanging of the Greens! Directly following our service on we will kick off our celebration of Christmas with a special family event at 10:15 am in the Sanctuary. We will be singing Christmas Carols, hearing the story of the first Christmas, and hanging a “family” Christmas ornament on the Sanctuary Christmas Trees. Ornaments have been saved from previous years so if you are new to our church please bring an ornament from home to hang on the tree. The ornaments that we use have been donated previously by LUMC families. Extra ornaments will be available.
We will also have a special gift for the children!
Following this, we will head into Stringer Auditorium for a festive light luncheon and our traditional singing of the “12 Days of Christmas.”
All are welcome. Make sure to bring friends and family! You won’t want to miss it!
To order a poinsettia or donate to the Christmas fund, download the order sheet here.
Christmas Caroling to Shut-ins
Everyone is invited to participate in Christmas Caroling for members and friends who are not able to come out to our services each week. We will meet at the church on Sunday, December 11 at 4 pm. We will travel to various homes to bring the spirit of Christmas to many of our friends!
