On December 7, we will start a new series for Advent. Alec Worrell-Welch will be leading a study based on Tish Harrison-Warren's book called Advent: The Season of Hope (Fullness of Time).  The book can be purchased on Amazon (used) for about $12; other sellers like Alibris or Abebooks, may have a lower price. It is 128 pages long, and the pages read quickly.

This study approaches Advent from numerous angles, drawing forth the historical power of Christ's incarnation and the hope for his future restoration of all things into the present, teaching us to attend to God in our day-to-day living.  

Our next series will also be led by Alec Worrell-Welch. The study will be on Forgiveness. The book that Alec will be using is Miroslav Volf's Free of Charge: Giving and Forgiving in a Culture Stripped of Grace. This book can be acquired at Amazon for as little as $6 or $7, used. It is 257 pages in length and comes with a video series and a discussion guide. We anticipate that classes will be a mix of discussion, video lecture, and spiritual reflection. The discussion guide recommends delving into the book over 9 weeks, so maybe something like January 4 through March 1.

Our Weekly Bible Study is currently in transition and will be moving to Wednesday mornings at 10 am beginning on November 26th in the Conference Room. We hope to see you there.

Our Annual Christmas Eve Candlelight Service will be held at 6 pm in the main sanctuary on Wednesday, December 24th. Everyone is welcome. Come and worship with us.

Our Morning Worship service is available from our church’s YouTube page. Join us there at 11 am Sunday on Sunday mornings or in-person.

Contact the church office if your group would like to apply for meeting space. Thanks for your patience and understanding of this matter. Please take care and continue to stay safe. May God Bless!!

The WAPC Green Team has recently published a new recipe book, Book of Uncommon (Vegetarian) Recipes and they are selling like hotcakes. This new book focuses on both vegan and vegetarian recipes. The rationale for this book is that eating less meat is better for the environment, our health, and the animal kingdom. You may note that there are no recipes with marshmallows or gelatin in our cookbook, maybe a first for a church cookbook of this nature. Copies of our book are on sale through the church office for $10 apiece. So give us a call or stop by for your copy.
