This is a fun evening for families to come together during the waiting days of Advent to prepare for Christmas.  Come join us as we look beyond the decorations of the season to the event that shapes our celebration, the birth of Christ our Savior.  We will have a prayer service, pizza, a movie, and family activities.  We encourage grandparents, single friends and neighbors to join your family for this special evening. This year, St. Nicholas will be visiting! BRING A SNACK TO SHARE!
