NEWS & NOTES
Concert Series
	Our next Concert will be held on December 16th at 3 PM. The MOUNT LAUREL BRASS will present an hour concert of Christmas music. Please consider coming out and supporting this wonderful group. The holiday season is always hectic, but we tend to enjoy it more when we take time out to enjoy the simple pleasures and this is surely one of them. Come and join us for a great day of music and celebration to prepare us for the Birth of our Savior.
Christmas Eve Services
	This year, we will hold our Christmas Eve services at 3 PM and at 7:30 PM on Monday, December 24th. Both services will include Holy Communion as well as Lessons and Carols and the traditional Candle lighting. The 3:00 Service will begin with a 20 minute concert (2:40 – 3:00) by the Trio Jolie’. They will also be playing music during the service. The Mt. Laurel Brass will provide Christmas Recital/Prelude for the later service. The Recital will begin at 7 PM. The committee reminds everyone that the recital prior to the service is not part of the worship; it is a time of gathering andfellowship, the worship starts at 7:30pm. If you have other plans or cannot be here at 7 for the recital please feel free to join us after the recital at 7:30 pm as we begin the worship time of our Christmas Eve celebration. Please plan to join us at these special services as we celebrate the coming of the Christ Child.
