Our Studies
Previously
We continued discussions around outreach, which began last week when we reviewed the Holy Conversations survey questions.
After that, we had some wrap up discussion on the Living the Questions video which focused on the Bible and the controversy around it in various Christian groups.
Next Week
We will continue the Living the Questions video series.
In the New Year, we will have another planning session to discuss our class topics for the first quarter of the year. See the variety of books, videos, and topics that have been suggested here.

Dec 18th Opportunities
The first opportunity is during Sunday morning worship, where both children's choirs will be singing. We anticipate many parents of children in the choir, who are not members, to be in attendance.
The second opportunity is at the 5:30pm Joy! Musical Celebration. Both children's choir and the handbell choir will be playing here. We anticipate many visitors and parents.
Consider sitting as a group in the back of the Sanctuary, to help make a presence. Also, by being in the rear, we can be first out of the Sanctuary and have the ability to say hello and welcome any new faces.
You may want to review the various Sunday School classes, in case any visitors ask you what classes are available. The Children's page, Youth page, and Adult page also show full listings of activities by age group.
