FATHER MARK’S ANNOUNCEMENTS

  1. Don’t forget our Christmas Eve Schedule – 5:00 P.M. and 10:30 P.M. By now you know that our early service is typically more full and includes a Children’s Sermon. The late service is usually smaller and more intimate. Both services will end with the traditional candle-lit singing of Silent Night. The past couple of years have definitely made us thankful for the traditions of the church, and I am so happy to be able to share this Christmas Eve in-person with you and your families.
  2. THANK YOU to all who have purchased Poinsettias for the church! They really are stunning and the sanctuary looks so beautiful!
  3. Next Tuesday at 7:00 P.M. we will once again join with our ecumenical partners in a Blue Christmas Service at First United Methodist Church in Scottsbluff. This simple service speaks to the pain many feel around this holiday season for any reason but most often the loss of a loved one. I’ll be there as will other area clergy and I invite you to come and join us as we name our sadness together.
  4. Christmas Dinner in the Valley is a holiday meal hosted by the Harvest Valley Church at 743 Winter Creek Dr. in Scottsbluff. Meals are free and there are dine-in, carry-out, and delivery options. There is a notice posted by the coffee station in the Parish Hall, or you can call 308-633-2999 or go to www.harvestvalleychurch.com for more information.
  5. COVID Plan Update --  Masks are still required in worship through the first Sunday in January, after which we will re-evaluate.
