Church Notes December, 2019
In Memoriam…  We are saddened to reflect on the loss of one of our most cherished and respected elders – a matriarch of our church – who served this church for nearly forty years.  Ann Carlson survived kidney dialysis for many years, welcomed a kidney transplant and continued thru it all to serve and to lead her church and her community.  She taught school, cared for sick and dying family members, travelled the world and was always ready to engage in spirited conversation with interesting people. Ann touched the lives of many Texadans, and she will be sorely missed.  A Celebration of her life will be held later.
Christmas is coming!  Our planning for Christmas Day Community Dinner is well underway.  We welcome your contributions of time, food, and other donations.  Please do RSVP to Phyllis Soles at 604-486-486-7526, or Barb Wells at 604-486-7677.  This event runs at the Royal Canadian Legion on Christmas Day, doors at 12:30, dinner served at 1pm.  Our Coordinators this year are Kevin and Lisa at 604-486-7228 (Shelter Point Park).
UCW Christmas Tea and Bake Sale:  December 7 at 2pm at the church. Circle the date on your calendar!  Load up on Christmas baking!
Christmas in Song – an all music service on Sunday, December 8 starting at 10:30.  Festive lunch to follow.  Our local musicians are awesome!  Come sing!
Christmas Eve Candlelight Service:  This year we will offer this service at 2pm in the afternoon.  Hopefully this will be a better option for our members who have difficulty driving at night.
