From Pin ministry
Dec 2020
PiN Ministry would like to recognize Mary and Jim from Community UMC, Virginia Beach, who organized, collected, and help load enough non-perishable food items to provide supplemental meals for over 80 families and individuals currently housed in our Enhanced Non-Congregate Shelter Program. Each client will receive these items this afternoon.
PiN Ministry is thankful for the generous and compassionate members of Community UMC who have come alongside to help fight for the most vulnerable in our community during these turbulent times. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, you all are amazing!
Youth Group Activity - Snowglobes!
The Youth Group has been engaging in creative activities done virtually, with supplies and leadership provided through Youth Ministry Coordinator, Andrea Jenkins. These beautiful snowglobes are being used to decorate the windows in the sanctuary for December.
Bringing a nativity to life
Sadly, our outdoor Living Nativity Drive-by had to be canceled due to weather conditions; however, the nativity was brought indoors for the Christmas Eve services at 2:00 and 7:00. Artwork by Terry Austin, carpentry by Jim Anderson, and stable design and build by Elbert Johnson and Rochelle Windham-Johnson.
The Seekers class donated inflatables for the Christmas Eve Drive-by which will be saved for use at next year's Snowball.
Silent Night, Christmas Eve 2:00 service
The choir sang Silent Night in different languages as the congregation lit candles and hummed along.
