Christmas Project 2017
Let us celebrate the joy of living and giving this season by
remembering and reclaiming the missional meaning of Jesus’
birth! Our gifts this year will be used to help support the boys at
the Waccamaw Youth Center and Help4Kids.
Each year your gifts help provide food for Christmas dinners for
the families of Help4Kids and various needs for the boys at the
Waccamaw Youth Center.
Additionally, there will be an Angel Tree in the Commons that
will allow your family to become more involved in the support of
the Waccamaw Youth Center this Christmas by either purchasing
gifts for one of the boys at the WYC or helping supply daily
needs for the center.
Monetary and Angel Tree gifts need to be received
by December 17! Please mark your monetary gifts
“Christmas Project”. You may also give online as
www.fumcconway.org or
text to give at 73256 and follow the prompts.

A virgin birth. God’s son…a helpless baby. Fleeing
certain death. Nothing about the Christmas story is
ordinary. Mike Slaughter says it’s enough to
confound the mind and make the heart contrite. In his
book, Down to Earth, Slaughter presents a four-week
Advent study that opens up God’s Christmas surprise
to us and examines how it changed everything.
Down to Earth Wednesdays @ 6:15 p.m. in Room 217

Sundays, December 10, and 17 4:00 p.m. in Hut Chapel
A peaceful worship service for those who struggle with finding the joy of the Christmas season because of a recent change or loss due to death, divorce, sickness, stress or unfortunate and tragic circumstances.
The Blue Christmas is an attempt to minister to these needs while still recognizing that part of the reason for Jesus coming was to bring hope and comfort.
