Grow and learn with us! Everybody’s welcome in our Father’s house!
ALL CHURCH TEXTS
Have you “opted in” to receive church texts? Our church system went through an update this fall and now requires an “opt in” for texts. If you’d like to continue getting church texts, please write “texts” with your name and mobile number on a communication card this Sunday!
SUNDAY MORNING CAFE REQUEST
The Hospitality Team is seeking individuals who would be willing to provide snacks one Sunday per month for the cafe. You just need to drop them off before 9am on the Sunday you sign up for each month. Please sign up in the Lobby if
you’re able to donate. We can always use more snacks – so feel free to bring extras to share anytime!
RESTORE EVENT AT IMPACT CHURCH
Impact Church is hosting an event for women high school aged and above that have experienced sexual trauma, know someone who has, or would like to be an advocate to care for victims. The event is free and will be held on January 17 from 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. You can expect compassionate engagement from both a clinical and biblical perspective. Please pick up a flyer in the Lobby and register if you plan to attend.

DONATIONS & VOLUNTEERS
for Christmas Outreach Parties
We also need volunteers to help in many different ways. Please sign up in the lobby today if you want to be a part of the Christmas outreach at City Life!
A SPOTLIGHT ON THE STAGE:
COME HELP TELL THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD!
You are invited to be part of our dramatic Christmas Eve production, The Story of Christmas. We will tell the Christmas story through drama, lights, costumes and music. We have many parts (including non-speaking parts and stage crew) for everyone of all ages. Sign up at the Welcome Table and grab a rehearsal schedule!
CHRISTMAS OUTREACH PARTIES
- Tues., Dec. 17: Party for Mel Trotter program track men @ Pastor Christy’s house
- Wed., Dec. 18: Party for Mel Trotter FAMILIES at the church (lots of help needed here!)
- Sun., Dec. 22: Party at Ferguson Apartments
Be watching for signup sheets in the lobby, as well as digital signups on our Facebook pages and website.
The two biggest needs will be:
- GIFTS. We really like to give gifts to those who come to our parties! Be watching for specifics on what we need for our outreach parties.
- FOOD for the Family Party. We’re doing a taco buffet, so please watch for signups of how you can contribute!
The purpose of these parties is to spread JOY, HOPE, and LOVE!
THE STORY OF CHRISTMAS
Tuesday, December 24, at 6:00 p.m.
The Story of Christmas is a dramatic telling of the birth of Jesus through drama, costumes, music, and more. We think there’s nothing more exciting than telling the story of Jesus – who he is and why he came! You won’t want to miss our Christmas Eve production as we celebrate Jesus’ birth!
