Yesterday we announced our Christmas offering for this year. We're calling it Light The Neighborhood. Our goal is to share the light and hope we've found in Christ with our community in a tangible way. Our goal is to connect meaningfully with 200 families in our community in a few ways:

1. Packing and delivering ready to prepare Christmas dinners for families in need.
2. Caroling at Grandview, Campbellsville Nursing and Rehab, Bluegrass Way, and some of our shut-ins.
3. Hopefully some bonus blessings as well.

We expect this initiative to cost about $10,000.

You can participate a few ways:
In person - drop your gift in the offering bags as they are passed, the box in the foyer, or stop by the church office anytime.
Online: visit www.cvillechristian.org/give to give online and select "Christmas Offering" from the drop down menu. 

We'll be collecting coats and shoes throught the week so bring them anytime during office hours, or bring them with you on a Sunday morning, evening, or Wednesday night. 

Join us for our annual Candlelight Christmas Eve Service at 11:00 PM on December 24th. It's always a special time of scripture, carols, and communion. Invite your friends, neighbors, and family!

In this message from the When God Moves In series, Will Warren takes us to Luke 2 and the moment Simeon finally sees the Messiah he had spent a lifetime waiting for. Will reminds us that Jesus is the arrival of real, lasting hope — the kind that strengthens us in waiting, steadies us in uncertainty, and reveals the perfection of God’s timing. When Christ entered the world, hope didn’t just grow…it showed up in person. 

Rhonda Smith is inviting everyone to her open house on December 11th in support of Eyes on You Ministries that her daughter, Raina, started and Rhonda continues in loving on those battling cancer. They'll be receiving gift cards to give to families facing cancer. You, on the other hand can receive cookies and coffee! The open house will run from 11:30am - 1:30pm.
