Christmas is for Giving!

We are having our Christmas Parties for Jr. and Sr. High this weekend!

Instead of doing a gift swap, please bring $5 of "Stocking Stuffers" because we are putting together gifts for Operation Christmas Stocking. This is a program put on by Souls Harbour Rescue Mission to provide needy men, women and children with a pair of new socks and some useful items.

Good ideas of Stocking Stuffers are:
-Toothbrush and Toothpaste
-Hotel Sized Toiletries
-Washcloth, tissues, comb, lip balm
-Gum/Small Candies
-Small Sewing kit
-Small Address Book, pen and pad
-Postage Stamps, Bus Tickets
-Small Cross
-Gift certificates for fast-food restaurants

Remember, these are packed into socks, so bring small items. (ie, not a big box of kleenex)

Sr. High is doing a progressive supper. Meet at the church Friday at 7, bring $2.

Jr. High is having a pot-luck at the church on Saturday from 7-10. Last name A-M bring an appetizer, Last name N-Z bring a dessert.

Make sure you dress up for this formal occasion!


...and don't forget coming Dec 14. The Super Heroes Feast at Rosewood Alliance from 6-9 pm, Cost $10. It includes food, games a Ninja Weapons show and more!

This week for youth The Jr High group is meeting FRIDAY at Westhill from 5:30 to 9:00!  Yes that is very different than usual.  We will need drivers, so if parents can drive that would be great!  We are going to help with the children's drop in time at North Central Family Centre.  Bring a couple dollars to get snacks when we head back to the church.

For Sr Highs we are helping with the church decorating on Saturday from 10:00 to 3 or 4 in the afternoon.  If you can only show up for a part of the time that is fine.  We are going to do a McDonald's run for lunch so bring some money for that.
