Where are the cookies?

"Where are the cookies?" That seems to be the number one question I hear regarding worship lately. While I always enjoy questions about Bible history and theology, this is a valid question as well. We used to serve cookies in the courtyard after each service. The main reason we haven't been doing this lately has been that the courtyard is so dark and cold. We could use the fellowship hall, but you might notice that it isn't all that bright at night either. So we decided we would wait until it was at least a little lighter outside.

It is also a task to get cookies there every week. So, as we move back toward spring, I hope you might consider helping in this ministry. Homemade cookies are great, but if you are more of a purchaser than a baker, a couple dozen from the store work pretty well too.

I think this is a really important part of what we do. It not only helps new visitors feel welcome, it is also great to have a time to stand around and chat after service. Food always helps that along.

We will announce when we are going to start having cookies again. In the mean time, check the cookie box on your card this week so we know you will be willing to help when we start back up. We try to have a bunch of people helping so you should only have to bring them once a month or so.

Have a blessed week!
