The eSojourner 

Chalice Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

Food!


Yep, it's the time of year with lots of food.

If you'd like to help out with food distribution at Chandler Christian Community Center tomorrow at 8:30 a.m., let Rev. Abigail know. All ages are welcome.

We'll be having our congregational Thanksgiving dinner this Sunday following worship. Bring whatever you said you'd bring. Bring something to share even if you didn't say you were bringing something. And definitely plan to stay. 

We're hosting IHELP on Monday night. We'll be serving a meal to our overnight guests. If you would like to help provide or serve food please contact Kathy Corner. Most importantly, if you said you'd help provide food, have it to the church by 5 p.m. The office is open all afternoon.
 


 

Advent Is Coming!


The first Sunday of Advent is November 30th. Make plans to stay after worship that day and each Sunday until Christmas. We'll have family friendly activities each day. All ages are welcome!

We'll also be doing a gift drive for Chandler Christian Community Center each Sunday in Advent. Here's what to bring:
11/30: arts & crafts kits, sports
   equipment
12/7:  cars/trucks & dolls
    (princess toys & Baby Alive
     are especially requested)
12/14:  socks & underwear

In the midst of lots of fun, we want to provide some tools for those of you who are grieving this holiday season. Plan to join Rev. Ruth Schulenberg, chaplain and CPE supervisor at Banner Good Samaritan, for a Coping with the Holidays Grief workshop on Monday, December 8th at 7 p.m. It's helpful (but not required) to let Rev. Abigail know you're coming. Anyone is welcome to attend, not just Chalice folks. 


 

More Food!


We sent over 200 items of food totaling more than 200 pounds of food to Chandler Christian Community Center this past week. Thanks to everyone who contributed to our drive!

 

And a few more things:


We're excited to welcome Baby Pearson, due December 11th. Because of the holidays, there are several folks planning a baby shower after P2's arrival, some time in January. You didn't miss it! (And no one forgot.)

If you're doing holiday shopping on Amazon, use this link! You'll be redirected to your normal Amazon site and Chalice gets a percentage of the money you spend on Amazon.
