Ok...there are a lot of things happening so I am going to give you a quick run down of upcoming stuff.


1.  Christmas Sing -  our rehearsal is tonight at 6:30 pm
The kids sing this weekend at all the services.  PLEASE arrive about 10 minutes before service so that we can get all the kids lined up and won't have to rush them and make them any more nervous than they already are.
Also, if you could have your kid sing in more than one service that would be great.  We will sing at all the services after the second song, so we have to line up immediately at the beginning of the service.
2.  After School Bible Study - This is for kids in 3rd - 5th grade and begins Wednesday, January 5 from 3:30 to 5 pm.  It will meet every other week and is for any kid whether they attend Parkway or not - it is absolutely FREE.
3.  Family Service Night - Friday, January 7, we are having a night where you can bring the whole family to the Elementary worship area to hang out and have some fun. We will also be doing a service night that night where we the families will be making lunches that will be passed out the next day to the homeless in downtown PHX. 
This is a great night to invite friends, have some fun and serve the less fortunate.  Watch for fliers with detials!
4.  Starting Point for Kids - Sunday, January 23 at 12:30 pm is our next Starting Point for kids.  If your child has questions about becoming a follower of Jesus,  please plan to attend this class. Children must be accompanied with and adult.

Have a great week and see you this weekend!

…time for toys and time for cheer…

Oh come on, you know you were singing that song too… you know, the Alvin and the Chipmunks song…it wasn’t just me… Right? .....… Well, stores are hanging their Christmas decorations, radio stations are playing Christmas music, houses are glowing with lights and ironically, as I type my Pandora account is playing “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…”

Here in CM, we are getting ready too! Rooms have been decorated, and plans for Christmas Sing are well under way… Here’s a few things you need to know as Christmas Sing is approaching.

Sun City sing has been canceled this year due to construction on their building… so don’t show up there this Sunday, or they will wonder what those tiny humans are doing. BUT we will hopefully be singing there in the Spring instead, so don’t be too sad! :)

Christmas Sing weekend is still on like Donkey Kong. We are going to sing on December 11/12 weekend. So get your kids in those cute little Christmas outfits that you love so much (and they don’t like at all) and come ready on that weekend.

Practice will be on Wednesday, December 8th from 6:30-7:30pm for ALL ages… make sure you are here that night, it will help the kids be more relaxed and comfortable on the weekend.

I think that’s pretty much it… :) I’ll post some pics real quick of the end result of our Christmas light decorations :) if you’re a CM volunteer, see you tonight at Brian’s!!
