There will be games (some group games are planned, so bring games you would like to play), a Talent Show (let Fern know if you have a song, skit, poem, etc.), food (bring a snack if you can), and a time to celebrate God's faithfulness through 2007 and anticipate what God has for us in 2008.   Questions?  See Fern Diener.

<p>Jubilee will begin the new year with a prayer walk.  Next Sunday, Jan. 6 at 3:00, we will gather at the church to sing, walk around the building and pray.  We will ask God's protection and blessing on a new year of worship and ministry.  Questions or suggestions?  Talk to Elaine Maust.
