Dear Church Family,

Once again, our beloved Advent Feast will be graciously hosted by Buck and Belinda Watkins at their breath taking and inviting property in Aguanga on December 22nd at 2:30pm.

In preparation for this progressive dinner where we trek all around their beautiful farm tracing God's people from Garden residents to exiles, culminating in the birth of our Savior, we will be taking sign ups for help with the many food items at each of the stops, and for the various services needed for such merriment. It takes a lot of hands to prepare this festive journey in food and faith, and set up an event of this size. If you are able, please consider signing up in several areas.

Hot Cider and Mulled Wine will be concocted ahead of time at the farm. Please consider signing up to bring bulk ingredients needed for those beverages.

Please also bring a bottle of wine or sparkling cider to share with the meal.

It does get cold up there, so remember to bring warm layers.

Appreciate all the help and look forward to celebrating with everyone!
