“SUNSETS AND GENTLE BREEZES” is the title of a new book that has been added to the St. Columba Library. Author is Margaret Jean Taylor

It’s Time To Think INSIDE The Box: Advent is fast approaching and this year ColumbaKids wants to support our community with Reverse Advent Calendars. With your help, we can give back to those in our community who are less fortunate. We are challenging you to put an item in a provided basket each day of the Season of Advent. On Christmas Eve, we invite you to bring your basket to either of our Worship Services, where it will then be given to Gleaners Food Bank. Traditionally, foodbanks are well supported in the time leading up to Christmas, but support falls off shortly after. We are hoping to help with this challenge. We will provide a list of suggested items. A sign-up list will be in the Narthex for families so we know how many baskets to purchase. Look for baskets on the 1st Sunday of Advent, November 27th. (Baskets will be received up to Jan. 8th, 2017)
