Pastor’s Notes

Hello!

The Christmas season is upon us! I hope this month find you filled with Joy, Hope, Love, and Peace.

Throughout the month of December, we’ll be spending time in all our activities at The Power House reviewing the Christmas story from the Bible. Please remind your child to be present each week, especially at Pizza Church on Fridays, to gain a more solid understanding of why we celebrate.

You’ll note, too, that Christmas Eve is on a Friday night this year. Instead of Pizza Church, we have our annual Christmas Eve Service which is open to all ages. Please see information in this newsletter about the service and come join with us in celebration.

Further, New Years Eve is also on a Friday this year. Because of this, we will NOT have Pizza Church that night.

My prayer for you and your family is continued blessings in this season and throughout the new near. Thank you for letting us share in the lives of your family.

In Christ,

Pastor Jeff Anderson

There’s no better way to start your family’s Christmas than coming to the Christmas Eve Service together. We’ll begin at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, December 24, and spend about an hour together listening to the Christmas Story and sharing in Christmas carols together.
