COMING UP SUNDAY- NOV. 24

This is the Last Sunday after Pentecost- also called Christ the King Sunday.   This is the last Sunday of the church year.  It is a fitting day to celebrate Jesus as the Christ and King.  With the beginning of Advent next week, we start a new cycle in the church year.  We begin our liturgical wait for the promised Messiah (King).
Church School will meet and the choir will rehearse at 8:15 am.
Next Sunday is the first Sunday of Advent.  We will have advent wreaths, candles, calendars and mite boxes available after church.   For a full list of our Advent activities, click on the tab at the top of the page, "In the Coming Weeks."
On Wed., Nov, 27, St. Thomas' will host an ecumenical Thanksgiving service at 7pm.  This annual event will include parishioners and clergy from St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church, First Baptist Church and St. Elizabeth's Episcopal Church- all in Hope Valley.  There will be refreshments following the service.  All are welcome.
