Reverse Advent Calendar starts November 30

Help local organizations which serve vulnerable children and families in our community!

Traditional advent calendars count down the days in December until Christmas by giving users a
surprise. With this reverse advent calendar, you are the one providing a treat to a vulnerable
neighbor. Bring items to the admin office on Sundays or from 11 am to 2 pm Monday, Tuesday, or
Thursday. We will distribute them to local organizations: James Lane Allen School, Nathaniel Mission, Recovery Café, The Nest, and our own church ministry.
