FROM THE COMMITMENT COMMITTEE
As we celebrate the election of a new pastor and prepare for the joy and wonder of Christmas at Morningside, your Commitment Committee continues to receive, and need, your financial pledges for 2011. The future before us is so bright, and we are grateful for your generous support of the ministry and mission of this community of faith. Thank you!
THIS SUNDAY AT MORNINGSIDE
Please join us this Sunday, December 5 for a special service of worship featuring both of our children's choirs, chancel choir, and Chris Henry's final sermon at Morningside. After worship, we will celebrate Chris' ministry with a pot-luck luncheon in the Fellowship Hall. Bring your favorite dish and a favorite story to share. We will pass the microphone around Fellowship Hall, so that all who wish to, may share a brief memory or words of appreciation. It will be another memorable day at MPC!
