EVENTS
CHRISTMAS SWEATERS, HOT CHOCOLATE AND HYMNS
Back for a limited time are the Advent gatherings which include dinner, a simple message to keep us focused on the Greatest Gift and an activity that promises to help families remember key thoughts. This is another time when wearing a Christmas sweater, beautiful or "ugly" is appropriate and appreciated. We will start with dinner at 6:00 provided by select groups. We need you to register HERE so that we can prepare for the numbers coming. You are welcome to bring friends and these gatherings are great for families with younger children.
(P.S. We will also have caroling on Dec 21 at various care facilities.)

CHRISTMAS DAY - LESSONS AND CAROLS
Christmas Day lands on a Sunday this year. Knowing that it is a special day for many families, we will have a simple service of reading through the Christmas story (lessons) interspersed with your favorite Christmas carols as we walk the path towards the birth of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. Come at 9:00 to rejoice together.
MANAGING ANXIETY... JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS - NOV 6-DEC 18
Managing Anxiety with Steve Cuss is a video-based series that explores what anxiety is, how it impacts us, and how we can discover what tools we have that can help to calm the storm. This class would be a good opportunity to explore not only our own dealings with anxiety but also learn about how to help others. This seven-part series comes from Right Now Media and is brought to you by Stephen Ministry.
CHRISTMAS CAROLING - DECEMBER 21
We are going to brighten some people's day who are restricted to the indoors at this time of year. We plan to go to FOUR care facilities on Wednesday, Dec 21, at 2:00, 3:00, 5:00 and 6:00 p.m. There will be a snack time in the middle to enjoy some hot cocoa and some other treats. All ages are invited to come to the time or times that work for you and your family. You can meet us at the facility at the designated time (still working out the travel arrangements). We will sing for a half hour at each place out of provided Christmas Carols songbooks.

CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICES
The one night that seems to hold the most anticipation, joy, reverence and hope is Christmas Eve. That is why we will have two Candlelight Services at 5:00 and 7:00 p.m. with the singing of some favorite Christmas songs, hearing the Greatest Story in a fresh way and ending with the solemn, yet goosebump-inducing, Silent Night in the light of handheld candles. Each service is the same and you may want to arrive a little early as both could be fairly full.
SAINTS ALIVE IN ACTION
In January, our Saints Alive (active seniors) group will host the First Image Baby Bottle Drive. This is an annual event that helps support the Pregnancy Resource Centers in the Portland area. They care for women, men and their families as they make hard decisions regarding an unplanned pregnancy. We will have baby bottles available in the lobby starting in January and will collect your filled bottles through January 29.
Blood Drive - FEB 23
Your donation, which takes 20-25 minutes, can give life to someone for years and even decades. We have all donations taken inside and the Red Cross staff are always helpful and gentle. It is a good place to talk with others and relax while hooked up. Sometimes, it's just nice to put your feet up and close your eyes. Your gift goes a long way, and you can sign up for your time HERE. All donors will receive a thank-you gift in return.
WATCH THE VISION NIGHT 2022
Imagine a Church-Wide Culture of Doing the Best Next Thing
If you missed Vision Night 2022, you can view it HERE. It would be good for all of our Beautiful Savior family to see the direction we are going and ask God what the means for us as we seek to be Christ to our family, community and world.
