SRCA NEWS AND NOTES

Dear Friends in Christ,

This Sunday marks the fourth Sunday of Advent. Our children and youth will present a Christmas Pageant titles, "Follow That Star" Please invite friends and neighbors to attend!

We have an opportunity to make Christmas happen for a family involved in a Domestic Violence Shelter program. . On Sunday we will receive a special free will offering toward making their Christmas a joy-filld time. 

Please sign up Sunday or by responding to this email if you would like a Christmas poinsettia in thanksgiving for or in memory of a loved one. Small poinsettias are $6.00, and large are $16.00. They can be taken home after Christmas Eve worship.

Christmas Eve worship will begin at 5:00. This is a wonderful time to invite unchurched friends and neighbors. It often takes dozens of invitations before someone actually accepts. Don't give up! Invite!!

Beginning Friday, January 13, we will be running the Alpha Marriage Course. Strengthening your marriage is the best investment you can ever make in your family. No marriage is at its peak without intentional work and attention. The course is open to friends and you are encouraged to invite a couple to attend with you. There is no charge for the course (we received a grant to run it). All work is done between couples. There is no large group discussion. I urge you to sign up take advantage of the opportunity to invest in your own well being. You can sign up on Sunday, or by responding to this email. We must pre-register folks so we have enough materials, and enough food for dinner. 

Our Bishop, The Rt. Rev. John Guernsey, will be visiting with us Jan. 27-29. We will have a special all parish event on Saturday the 28th, from 4:00 until 8:00. Please save the date! Confirmation and Receptions will be celebrated on Sunday the 29th. Please let me know if you are interested in being confirmed or received into the Anglican Church. 
faithfully,

Becki+
