WE would love your help in preparing for the 2020 Christmas Season that’s right around the corner! Can you believe it?! Who’s ready for joy & good cheer!
TO help prepare for our Bethlehem Marketplace theme  we are asking our Woodland Family for some specific donations that will help create a wonderful atmosphere to tell the Christmas Story in an exciting way this year.
BASED on this vision, we are in desperate need of the following donations:
••• INDOOR/OUTDOOR AREA RUGS  (solid colors, Persian designs, striped... etc)
••• COLORFUL PATTERED SHEETS (solid colors, striped, paisley, geometric shapes... etc)
••• WOODEN BOXES, WOVEN BASKETS
DETAILS: Donations need to be brought in to Woodland no later than Sunday NOVEMBER 22nd as this is the day we’re starting decorating. Also, these are donated items, they cannot be returned, so things you may want to giveaway or take to Goodwill would be perfect. We ask if donating sheets, please bring them clean, no stains.

Christmas cast for Christmas Eve Services
No Experience Required.
For the Christmas Eve services there are a lot of moving parts for the service, as we will have live animals, and a larger cast of people. For this we are asking for volunteers to be part of the Christmas service. This will be a SUPER FUN opportunity to serve not only the Lord at Christmas, but your church family & community!
ADULT CAST POSITIONS NEEDED:
••• ANGELS (approximately 20-30 people - preferably adults/HS students.)
••• SHEPHERDS (approximately 4-5 people - father/son pairs would be great!)
••• MAGI (looking at possibly 3 people for this)

 Kane Rigney is the contact for any and all questions or inquires & to commit as an actor. Currently we have 3 service times for Christmas Eve, you must be able to commit to all 3 services to be in the cast. 

We will once again be hosting The Manger Project—a FREE, fun and interactive event designed to give your family a chance to catch your breath and reclaim the warmth and peace of Christmas. Only this year, you will have the opportunity to build your manger from the comfort of your own home with our Manger Project Virtual Experience!! Don't worry, while the instructions will be virtual, your manger will be VERY REAL😉

Come experience a live Bethlehem-like Marketplace this year for Christmas Eve! Our services are at 3:30pm, 5:00pm & 6:30pm this year. But come early to walk through the Marketplace to experience what it may have been like to live in the time of Jesus' birth! We also will have live animals this year to join in the fun! This year because of the challenges with Covid we will only be having ticketed events. Stay tuned with how to register! 

You are in the center of a battle - a battle to break up your marriage. There are so many forces tearing marriages apart little by little. And much of the time, we're oblivious to the gradual breakdown of our relationships.
You may be raising kids, striving for success in your career, or taking care of elderly parents. Then suddenly, years into the marriage, you look across the table at your spouse and realize you're angry, disconnected, or just hopeless...and you aren't really sure why.
There is HOPE FOR YOUR MARRIAGE!
