Our Woven Together Christmas Party is fast approaching! Join us Tuesday December 2, 2008 from 6-8pm. The party will be held in the Atrium of The Chapel’s Green Campus. This will be a fun family event filled with food, fellowship and games.
We are collecting new, empty duffel bags or backpacks to donate to foster kids in Summit County who are moving from one placement to another. Please consider participating. We are also having an ornament exchange that night. If you would like to participate, bring a wrapped ornament for each person in your family who would like to join in the fun.
Cost for the family dinner, which will include pizza, salad, chips, drinks, and dessert, is $15.
Please RSVP here. Please be sure to tell us in your RSVP how many are in your family. Thanks!

Many of us have been praying for an All-Church spotlight on God’s love for orphans and adoption for many years. We are so thankful and excited to have this window of opportunity to show God’s providence and goodness in our lives and the lives of our children. We have no idea how far-reaching the impact of these tables, the sermon, or the spotlight will be. Please come be a part.
