Weekly Update! (12/11)

THIS SUNDAY AT 10:15am– We invite you to join us ONLINE or IN PERSON this Sunday at 10:15am. This Sunday's sermon is titled: "Good News & Great Joy." We will be reading in Luke 2. Join us for our third Sunday of Advent, where we will focus on joy! When you check in on the church center app, be sure to select IN PERSON or ONLINE, depending on where you are joining us from.

CHRISTMAS EVE CELEBRATION - We will have a Christmas Eve celebration on Thursday, December 24th at 4pm. Be sure to mark your calendars! 

CHRISTMAS CHEER - We, as a church family, have another amazing oppor-TUNA-ty to help feed families in Polk County by collecting TUNA for Christmas Cheer. We have a short collection window this year - but we welcome cans of tuna until our deadline on this Sunday, December 13th. If you are able, please help us feed hungry people! Christmas Cheer provides food boxes to the great people of Polk County each year; families, singles, and seniors. Due to Covid - we are doing things a little differently this year, but are still excited about the opportunity to share the joy of Christmas. If you or someone you know could benefit from a little extra this year, and/or you would like to volunteer to serve, please sign up or share THIS LINK.

UPCOMING CONGREGATIONAL MEETING - Our Congregational meeting is this Sunday, December 13th, at 1:00pm, and will be held on Zoom. Registration required. Official members of Faith Church will be asked to vote in regard to the proposed 2021 budget. If you are interested in more details and did not receive an email earlier this week, please let us know! 

CHRISTMAS TREE FAMILY PHOTO FUN - We thought it would be a super fun way to spread Christmas joy to our church family this year by taking a still photo of your Christmas tree, decorations at home, or your family in front of any of these things, and sending it in to us! We'll take your pictures and put them all together for a special Christmas slideshow for all our Church family to enjoy. Break out those decorating skills and show us your beautiful trees and families! Feel free to upload your pictures to our Google Drive, or email them to info@faithchurchdallas.org. We can't wait to share in this together! Please submit all pictures by December 20th.

MISSIONARY CHRISTMAS OFFERING - Thank you so much for your overwhelming generosity towards our missionaries and their families! We collected $2,732 to evenly divide among our missionaries and bless them this Christmas!
