We had an amazing time yesterday putting together the Thanksgiving baskets and delivering them to the families that needed them in Claremont. We gave away 16 baskets. Bonnie Gobin did an amazing job planning and implementing everything for these baskets. We had more food donated, more people helping and more fun than I have ever seen. It was awesome and we are looking forward to next year.
I've kicked off our Christmas series "Making Christmas Meaningful" yesterday. I am preaching two pre-Advent messages to get us ready for the x-mas ones. Great crowd, great Spirit and all around great day. I couldn't have been happier with the way things turned out.
How bout those New England Pats. They romped the Jets. The defense started sliding a bit in the second half but they held on and did an awesome job. Very glad the Pats won after last weeks game.
I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. It's going to be quiet and we will just hang out, eat some turkey and watch the parade with my In-laws.
We are doing some special things this year at church for the Christmas season. We will be giving away a great book to all first-guests called "Why a Manger?" by Bodie & Brock Thoene. So if you invite a friend, family member, co-worker or neighbor to church for the first time they will automatically get a free book. Also we are giving our members some cool invite cards to help invite people to church for our series. I believe it is important to resource our church members with the tools they need to share their faith and invite people to church.
