A Season of Waiting

Hey CPC,

Here are your announcement and links for the first week of Advent.

Sunday Worship
This Sunday, November 29th is the first Sunday of Advent, when we will light the Candle of Hope as we begin our journey into a new liturgical season. While the sanctuary is open, we’re encouraging folks to remain home and use the Zoom technology.

Jesse Tree Devotional
This year, we’re introducing a new way (for some of you) to observe the season of Advent. A Jesse Tree devotional is a historic means of going through the redemptive story of God’s love for all of humanity, by tracing salvation history from creation to the birth of Christ Jesus through a serious of ornaments. Beginning on Tuesday, December 1st (and ending on Christmas Eve), you’re invited to cut out and color each the paper ornaments, after reading the listed Scripture reference.

More details for this devotional will be offered tomorrow during the announcements. Until then, download and print the devotional from our website, or use this direct link. If you’d like to make your journey even more special, this devotional draws its symbols from Geraldine McCaughrean’s beautiful children’s book, The Jesse Tree. Consider purchasing it to add a delightful story to your season of Advent. 

Games Up Here
Join us ONLINE tomorrow night, Monday, November 23th from 7:00-8:30pm MST as we branch out into new online games with the award-winning party game Just One. No player sheets are needed this week, just pen and paper. Get more information on our Games Up Here page: https://lakecitypresbyterian.org/games-up-here/.

Weekly Bible Study

All are welcome, even if you’ve never joined us before. 🙂 The link for the Zoom Bible Study is below.

A Week of Gratitude

Hey CPC,

As we enter into a holiday weekend that’s characterized by a spirit of gratitude, let us be thankful for all of God’s blessings in our lives. Though COVID continues to spread, we endeavor to find place and space to connect with one another. This coming week, and for the foreseeable future, we’re moving all of our activities online only. Games, Tuesday’s teaching time, and Wednesday’s Bible study will all be on Zoom.

For the remainder of the year, we will still have the sanctuary open for worship; however, we are encouraging folks to remain home and participate through the Zoom service if they are more comfortable doing so.

ReThinking Christmas

Hey CPC!

We’ve got a full week ahead of us, with a new learning opportunity with our two-week series on Advent and Christmas. Check out what’s happening below.

Sunday Worship
This Sunday we’ll be exploring the Parable of the Talents and how it’s been misused over the years. Though we are meeting in-person on Sunday, please keep in mind that there is a report of one positive case of COVID in town. If you are joining us in the sanctuary, please remember to wear your masks, especially during the time of singing, as that activity has been deemed as one of the most dangerous for spreading the virus.

The first class will be on Tuesday, November 17th from 4:00pm-5:00pm MST. Visit our website for a Zoom link for this special offering.
