Inviting… Nurturing… Growing… Serving…

Good News is Inviting

Start to think about that friend of new neighbor who might not have a church. Invite them to come with you. God may have already opened a door in their life; now they only need someone to make a connection.

The cake has a small plastic baby (to represent the Baby Jesus) inside or underneath; and the person who gets the piece of cake with the trinket has various privileges and obligations (to be determined). Tradition holds that the cake is "to draw the kings" to the Epiphany. Please plan to attend.
