SERVING OUR COMMUNITY
John Mains, Program Director at the Tuscany Club, has asked whether anyone from Tapestry would be available to help out at the community open house this coming Satruday, Dec. 19 from 1:00 - 3:00 pm at the Club. He's short on staff and looking for a few people who can help with the kids craft area, the snacks/treats table and just socialize with the residents who come out. This is a great opportunity to serve our community! If you can help, please contact Steve as soon as possible.
YOUTH
This Friday, Dec. 18 the youth are having a big, extravagant, most awesome mall hunt ever! Bring every friend you have to Market Mall at 7:00 pm (we'll meet at the entrance by Starbucks). Disguised volunteers are needed who the youth will be trying to find. It's a great way to have some fun, do some of your Christmas shopping and help out the youth. If you want to help, contact Josh & Kelly at 403-851-0338 or by email at jkgenn@gmail.com.
TAPESTRY FAMILY CHRISTMAS PARTY - THIS WEEK!
This Sunday, Dec. 20, 4:30 - 8:00 pm at the Tuscany Club. We're selling tickets this year at a nominal cost ($3 per person or $5 per family) so we know how many people are coming and to help cover the cost of the turkeys, etc. You're encouraged to invite friends or neighbors - just make sure you buy them tickets! For tickets and food sign-up, please contact Lynda Blazina at 403-288-6615 or email her at maxnme@shaw.ca. As has become tradition, everyone school-aged and over is asked to bring a wrapped "white elephant" gift (a used item you no longer want) for a fun and light-hearted gift exchange.
TRANSITION TEAM
The elders are in the process of forming a Transition Team, whose mandate will be to prayerfully seek out a new pastor for Tapestry. If you sense God may be leading you to serve on the Transition Team, please contact Max Blazina at 403-288-6615 or by email at maxnme@shaw.ca.
NEW WEBSITE
Our current website has served us well for years, but it's time to revamp it, give it a fresh look and make it more robust. Interested in helping? Please talk to Steve.
PRAYING FOR ONE ANOTHER
This week, please pray for the Bush Family (Heather, Jim & Grace), Dan & Catherine Clark and the Genn Family (Josh, Kelly, Ella, Gus & Baby). As you pray, be sensitive to whether God would have you send a note, give them a call or minister to them in some other way.
CHRISTMAS MESSAGE SERIES
This week, Steve will be sharing a message entitled, "All I Want for Christmas Is..." - Facing the reality that this isn't always 'the most wonderful time of the year.'
Next week...we introduce a cool new sermon series for the New Year. We even have a gift for you!
BIRTHDAYS THIS WEEK...
Birthday blessings to the following people who are celebrating their special day this week: Steve Yeo (Dec. 17), Abbie Macdonald, Tianna Beda and Kim Pangracs (all Dec. 20). Did we miss you or someone in your family? Let Steve know and we'll update our records.
