Then, on December18th, the church will have a Christmas Card Exchange.Cards to people in the church fellowship are placed (saving postage) in a box and distributed during a social hour following worship.”The Candle Light Christmas Eve Service culminates our growth in the meaning of the birth of Christ,” according to Pastor Ron.It is at 7.P.M.
