ANNOUNCEMENTS

1. If you are new here and would like to know more about Jesus, Leidy’s Church, and how to get connected, please fill out the Connect with Leidy’s Card and put it in the Get Connected pillars on the left-hand side of the doors when you leave the sanctuary.

2. As you partner with us in the work of the Kingdom, please place your gifts and offerings in the Get Connected pillars.

3. The Fourth Candle on the Advent Wreath is the candle of Love. The advent of the Christ Child is God’s eternal love reaching redemptively into the daily, grimy, fallen life of mankind. It was the love of God that planned and brought to pass the coming of Jesus into our world and, ultimately, into our personal lives.

4. Christmas Eve Service - December 24 at 5:00PM. Join us for a special worship service where we’ll reflect on Scripture, sing beloved carols and songs, and end the evening with a candlelight singing of Silent Night. We invite you to share in this celebration of Jesus birth.

5. Next Sunday is the last day to contribute to the Double Your Dollar Campaign! Let’s finish this year with a spirit of generosity and gratitude! You can give by using the Renovation Fund Envelope or a Second Mile Offering Envelope and indicate Renovation Fund. Give online at https://leidyschurch.churchcenter.com/giving, by mail, or in person.
