Hanging of the Greens in 2020


Things will be done differently this year due to COVID

Dear Friends –

Due to the Covid restrictions, we will not have the typical “Hanging of the Greens” this year. Therefore, we are looking for family groups to come in at different times during the week of November 22 to help with decorating the Sanctuary and Family Life Center in preparation for Advent and Christmas Eve. The goal is to have the decorations in place for the first Sunday of Advent, which is Sunday, November 29. (Even if the current Covid increase causes us to pause having people in worship services, we most likely will continue to live-stream from the Sanctuary and FLC – including Christmas Eve services.)

Each family grouping could choose one or more of the items listed below. Please contact Susan in the church office this week to coordinate times (so that different families are present at different times) and to indicate which of the below ‘labor(s) of love’ your family would be willing to complete as we prepare for Advent and Christmas.

Thank you!
