Lafayette Presbyterian Church Youth present:
A Live Nativity
 The
youth of our church will be performing a “live” Nativity on the
church grounds December 18, 2009, from 7:00 pm until 9:00 pm.
Please make plans to drive through and see this special
presentation.
Casting Call
Attention actors!!
Actors from ages 5 through high school are urged to
participate in this special Advent pageant. Performers
interested in trying out for parts in the Live Nativity will
receive training and background history for their character
parts during our Sunday School hour (9:30 to 10:45).
Additional casting and rehearsals will be held on the December
2nd and 16th Kirk Nights. Scouts are especially invited to
join in! Come for catered supper at 5:30; Rehearsals at
6:15.
This presentation will be advertised to our community and
promises to be seen by a large audience. Please make plans today
to participate in “The Greatest Story Ever Told”.
You may contact Lea Reeves (878-5998) or Bob Henning (878-7479)
for more information.
 The
Chrismon Tree will be raised in the Narthex on Saturday,
December 5th.
Chrismons (a word formed from “Christ” and “monogram”)
are gold and
white symbols of the Christian faith that hang to remind us of
the endless ways God has been revealed to us.
You are invited to come on December 5th, at 10:00 a.m. to share
in hanging the Chrismons!
Christmas Eve Candlelight Service
Our Christmas Eve Candlelight Service will begin
at 7:00 p.m.
We will celebrate the coming of Christ, once and again, with
traditional Scripture readings and carols, with the beautiful
anthems of our choir, and light our candles in honor and worship
of Him who comes as the Light of the World. The sacrament of
Holy Communion will be celebrated.
If you have family arriving, please bring them with you to
worship for the deepening bonds of faith that it brings. You can
observe Christmas in many ways, but you can never observe it
alone. Rejoice with your church family on Christmas Eve!
 We
are preparing the Acolyte schedule for the new year. Anyone
in the congregation from third grade to adult may participate in
Worship as an Acolyte. This is a great experience for anyone
wanting to serve the church by bringing God’s light into the
worship experience. Please contact Nancy Telander or Phyllis
Papka if you would like to join the acolyte team or would like
more information about acolyting.
