The adrenalin is building for the second weekend of the Singing Christmas Tree. Celebrating the birth of our Savior in this dramatic way is a great privilege that we have enjoyed for the past 53 years. He is worthy of all the attention. There are still seats available if you would like to attend.
Sunday, Cathy and I will be speaking about pursuing an Uncommon Family. We are looking forward to encouraging you with God’s Word and we are believing for a great experience in His presence.
Ephesians 5:1-2 Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Jesus Loves the Forgotten
These are some exciting days! The Singing Christmas is in full swing this weekend and next. If you haven’t yet secured tickets to attend, the best available times are the 7:00 p.m. performances on the two Saturday’s and Sunday’s. This is a great event to bring a friend to.
Sunday our Equal Start Be Change team is running the Sacramento International Marathon to help support health care for the children of
Sunday’s focus will be “Jesus Loves the Forgotten.” It is going to be a very moving experience as we continue to grow in our awareness of the needs around us and how we can make a difference.
One of the special features for this Christmas season is our annual focus toward One Day to Feed the World. We partner with Convoy of Hope where one dollar is matched with donations to multiply the value of our gift. The idea is that we calculate what one day’s wage would be and, if possible, give that amount to help feed those that are in poverty around the world. Convoy of Hope has there boots on the ground where the need is and they are making a significant difference for hurting people. What a great way for us to make this Christmas giving season a little more special and impacting. We will be receiving this offering on Sunday, December 20. Please consider joining me and my family in this effort.
Proverbs 19:17 He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done.
