The Advent Season is a time of preparation for the 12 day Festival of the Nativity of our Lord.  Advent Midweek Connections invite the Gethsemane faithful to prepare for Christmas on December 3, 10, & 17.  We will worship, with song, Word and Communion, through the Holden Evening Prayer vespers at 7pm.

Viola Hall & Beverly Helsel continue the Advent tradition of soup, sandwiches and cookies beginning at 5:30pm.  There will be activities for the children, table discussion for adults and confirmation classes, worship and mentoring.

Thanks to all who have participated throughout the Fall Midweek Connections.  This has been a time of Christian community on Wednesday evenings with delicious meals, catered by Mark & Alice Mueller; excellent learning opportunities with Intern Sharolyn Browning, Dar Krenek, Jim Riley, Lee Schnelle, Pastor Susan Schnelle, music with Joann Gerbig; meaningful worship and mentor time.  Mid-week Connections classes will resume again on January 14, 2015.  “Adult Confirmation” will continue in the Steffans Parlor, 11 a.m.

Come and prepare for the Christmas Festival.
