Thanksgiving Peace to You!

Thanksgiving Peace to You!

Whether you are actively involved at Peace or are a friend of Peace, near or far away, we are grateful for the connection we have with you. We hope you have a Thanksgiving, full of gratitude. If you’re facing family tension or experiencing too much solitude this week, we pray God’s grace will abound in your life.

Did you hear about the unveiling of the Charter for Compassion on November 12? Take a look at what these peacemakers are doing: www.charterforcompassion.org

The Peace Youth will be selling Christmas wreaths on Sunday morning December 6 after worship at SCF. Donations will help fund youth retreats and missions.

The Peace Mission Team invites you to make Christmas merry for a struggling Mission Beth-El family through your participation with angel tree gifts. We also have the opportunity to provide hospitality to international college students. Email back if you have interest or questions (or show up Sunday) and I will connect you with the right people.

The anticipatory season of Advent begins this Sunday. Great time to re-connect with the church. New choir members welcome to join just for Christmas singing this Wednesday, the 2nd.

And for personal daily devotions, click on 365.org.

I challenge you to create a gratitude list on Thursday or Friday. Fill the page.

Peace,

Pastor Elizabeth
