New Study
The Friendship Class has begun studying David Otto's book, "The
Miracles of Jesus". We meet in Room 208 at 9:45 AM each Sunday.
Advent is a time to slow down and pause, in the midst of often frantic
preparations for Christmas, to focus on the unfolding story of God
choosing to enter into the world as the vulnerable baby Jesus. How did
his birth affect those around him and what was their part in both
preparing for and responding to this outpouring of Gods grace in the
world? Well ponder this and other questions as we move through the
Advent season together, focusing each Sunday on one person in the
biblical narrative whose life was changed forever by encountering the
miracle we celebrate at Christmas.
TODAY from 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., Aldersgate will host a very special
program organized by church member Fay Painter. Fay has been
serving as a missionary for about 2 years for a church of African
refugees and immigrants. She is inviting everyone from Aldersgate to
attend. The children will do a Christmas play, and the Worship Team
from Africa Lighthouse Baptist Temple will lead Christmas hymns sung
in Swahili. Following the pageant, you will hear from Pastor Peter
Chege, the stories of three refugees from the Congo, and learn more
about Fays new ministry, ARISE! Alliance for Refugee and Immigrant
Support and Education. Following the program, there will be African
food and fellowship. No RSVP required! For more information, contact
