During the morning worship there will be a time for the children or anyone to come and place your Lottie Moon Christmas Offering in the manger in front of the church. We’re excited about reaching our goal and even going beyond! Our church goal is $8,000.00. Candles will be lit for each $1,000 gift. So please pray about your part in this special offering for foreign missions.
