One of our missions for the Christmas season is to purchase Christmas gifts for the residents of Cedar Hill Apartments in Joplin. These folks, who suffer from mental illnesses, are on their final phase of assistance before going out independently on their own. Unfortunately, many of them have no family to support them or to give them gifts. If you would like to help by purchasing a gift or gifts, simply take an angel from the tree, wrap and return it to the church by Dec. 9. (Please attach the gift angel to the outside of your gift.) Each resident has two angels with a gift request. Check out the larger angels attached to the ribbon on the wall and read what they have said about themselves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TRUSTEE\/KITCHEN COMMITTEE MEETING<\/strong> There will be a meeting of the \u201ckitchen committee\u201d on Wednesday evening at 7:00.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WOMEN\u2019S HOLIDAY EVENT<\/strong>: Dinner, Secret Sister Reveal, Ornament Exchange, Cookie Exchange The LWML sponsored evening for all ladies of the congregation, is next Sunday, December 2. Dinner will be served promptly at 5:00 pm. Hostesses for the evening are Janet C., Brenda K. and Lora W. To participate in the ornament exchange game, simply bring a wrapped tree ornament (no more than $5.00). All those who wish to participate in a cookie exchange should bring batches of cookies on a decorative plate. We will also be drawing for our Secret Sisters for 2013. You don\u2019t have to be a member of the LWML to enjoy this fun evening!<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTMAS ANGELS<\/strong> Diana E. is asking for angel figurines, large to ornament sizes (newly purchased, or used that are in good shape), that you would like to donate to the church. She will be using them in the decorating of the church for Christmas. Please have them here by Dec. 3. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CD\u2019S AND TAPES OF THE SERVICE<\/strong> Audio tapes and CD\u2019s of the service are available after the service each Sunday. They are located in the glassed-door cabinet in the narthex.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS<\/strong> are available in the narthex after the service. You will be given a small form that can be carried in your wallet which will include medical information and a log of your blood pressure readings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ASSISTIVE LISTENING<\/strong> If you are having a hard time hearing the service, assistive listening devices are available from the ushers. They work like a transistor radio and you can control the volume.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PRAYER BEARS<\/strong> are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex) and given to anyone that needs God\u2019s love, comfort, and peace.
