Noah's Ark Families and Friends,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I hope your family had a blessed Thanksgiving and relaxing fall break.

Tomorrow is the first Sunday in Advent, and Lake Grove Kids and LGPC Women's Ministry will host a Kick-off to Advent event in Fellowship Hall right after the 9:30 services. Your family is invited to bring a dish to share and enjoy warm fellowship, a festive hot chocolate bar, and a Potpourri Station where you can create stovetop potpourri—one for yourself and one to bless a neighbor. Let's begin this season of hope and hospitality together!

December Family Chapel: Noah's Ark looks forward to seeing you all on Monday at 9:00 AM for the December Family Chapel, when Ms. Abby and I will lead you in our monthly chapel service, including a Silent Night story time, Christmas carols, and Advent prayers. Please remember to park and walk your child into the Sanctuary upon arrival.

An abundance of events will take place in December as we prepare for Christmas and the birth of the Christ Child. Please click on the graphics below or visit the Lake Grove Church website for more information about all opportunities to serve, give, and celebrate during the upcoming Advent season.

THANK YOU!!! Thank you for all your donations of new winter clothing and shoes for Woodburn Family Learning Center. Noah's Ark delivered your generous contributions to Woodburn on Monday, November 24. Click here to see the photos from our delivery visit.

Enjoy the weekend! 🍂🏈🍁
