Last Sunday Steve Jebbia shared our opportunity to support nine (9) children at Agape Resource and Assistance Center in Plano, as well as donate gifts to the families at Family Gateway. If you would like to adopt one of the specific children, please see Steve after worship to sign up. He will be able to provide valuable information on each available child. If you sign up for one of the Agape children, the gifts are to be returned wrapped on Sunday, December 8th.

If you would prefer to purchase for Family Gateway’s holiday store, Steve will have these lists also. These gifts are also due on Sunday, December 8th, but are NOT to be wrapped. If you would like to help Family Gateway by working at their holiday store located at All Saints Catholic School (only two miles from church) on Saturday, December 14th, please see Steve Jebbia or Barb Kolle.

 

 

 

A Worship Celebration for Christmas

With Orchestral Accompaniment

Sunday, December 15, 2024 – 10:30 AM

 

From the stark opening “Kyrie eleison” to the final jubilant “Gloria in excelsis Deo,” Let Heaven and Nature Sing Gloria” rings a collective “Alleluia” to God from all of us made in the Creator’s image. This inspiring music is by Mark Hayes, lyrics by John Parker, and narrative text by Audra Parker. Utilizing familiar Latin phrases along with carols old and new, we will join all nature and the heavenly host, as we celebrate again the birth of God’s Son. Our own choir members will be the narrators during this musical worship experience, and accompanied by flute, oboe, piano, and string quartet, our hearts are sure to be warmed. Invite your friends and neighbors!
