Christmas

It's the most wonderful time!  

While it still feels like Christmas is a long way off and waiting is hard...we are starting to talk about the Christmas story and what that means for our lives in Lighthouse this Sunday.  We will begin to unwrap the meaning of Christmas over the next 5 weeks.  Come on out and bring your friends!


Advent Challenge!
Celebrate Jesus' birth by giving a gift to someone each week of Advent.
This doesn't have to a gift that costs money.  It can be an act of kindness that you pass on to someone else.  Maybe even someone you find hard to love!
Give a hug...
Say something kind to someone who needs it...
Play with someone who gets left out...
Share something you have with someone else...
Be creative!!

Some dates for you and your parents to get on the calendar are:

Nov. 21- pageant practice after church
Nov. 28- pageant practice after church
Dec. 5-    pageant practice during and after church (potluck Sunday)
Dec. 12- Christmas Pageant during the morning Service.

Parents:
Please look in your church mailboxes for the Advent booklet for families.  Check inside for some great activities to do together as you await the Coming of Christ.  Create some new family traditions together!
