PLEASE COME TO THE LORD’S TABLE with a repentant and faith-filled heart, prepared to accept the presence of Christ. Both the individual and common cup are offered. Grape juice is in the center ring of the individual cup trays. Maintaining accurate communion records is impossible if the pew book rack card is not signed. Ushers will collect the communion cards as worshipers come forward.

 

MINISTRY NOTES

Please plan to stay after worship today for St. Mark’s Time and Talent Silent Auction, sponsored by the Finance Committee. All funds raised go toward reducing the church deficit. Auction items include gift baskets, chair plant stand, Avon products, quilt, scrapbooking supplies, chocolate lovers’ basket, handmade greeting cards, a roasting chicken,  two fishing trips, swimming pass, Packer football, and much more.  

 

Today is the last day to order BOOKS. Books are on display in the entrance. St. Mark’s receives 40% profit on all sales, with proceeds going toward the budget deficit. We will be accepting book orders until next Sunday. Order forms and envelopes are on the table, and may be turned in to the office. Books will be delivered in time for Christmas giving.          

 

Sunday School is accepting donations for the children’s Christmas goody bags. Suggested items are: juice boxes, candy, and small toys. Please have items to church as-soon-as possible.

 

Today is the last day to order your CUT-OUT COOKIES! We bake, you decorate. Bible Campers are taking orders for cut-out Christmas cookies in the Fellowship Hall following worship. The cost is six for $3.00 or one dozen for $5.00. We also will give you three different frostings to decorate your cookies. Pick-up is Saturday from 1:00 to 2:00 pm.

 

FRIENDSHIP LINKS meets tomorrow at Marcia Lee’s (676 Dartmouth Drive) for dessert and an ornament exchange. All women are welcome to join us for fun and fellowship. Please call Marcia (205-4082) if you need a ride.
