SUNDAY MORNINGS
CHILDREN'S CHURCH CHRISTMAS PROGRAM The kids in children's church have started working on their annual Christmas play. Each year the teachers and students work so hard to make this happen. It helps so much when every child involved can be there for all the preparation! If you are interested in helping out with this years program - please contact Nanette Knuth. 

POTLUCK After the children's program, Sunday, December 12th, we will have a church potluck. Please contact Kay Rutherford or Becky Glover about helping set up, serve, bring food or clean up. 

HELP CLEAN THE BUILDING The RMCM "Clean Team" needs some extra hands to help keep our building beautiful. They need some people willing to serve for 1 hour each month to do some basic cleaning. To start helping please contact Karen Clement or Kay Rutherford.
