SERVICE OF HEALING & HOPE

The Christmas season isn't always merry and bright.

You are not alone. We invite you to gather with us at Knox Presbyterian Church for a Service of Healing and Hope. All are welcome.

CHRISTMAS ANGELS
November 22 - December 12
You can pick an angel online or between the Sunday Services starting November 22. The drop off date is Saturday, December 12. You can also donate money to help with the transportation costs. The most important part of the Christmas Angels are prayers that we have a flawless trip and these presents give the children joy and the knowledge that God is there with them all the time.
Being included is a great feeling and we want to extend that feeling to others around us. Bring hope to others you know by inviting them to join you at Knox this Christmas Season.
