SPOTmail Update!!!!

The Christmas Party SPOT

The first-ever Christmas SPOTclass Shindig is planned for the Hurt's home this Sunday, December 6, beginning at 5 p.m.

Don't forget your awesome appetizer recipes -- Kevin promises not only will our party feature funky music, but also his world-famous Rye Bread Pizzas (at least they're famous in Kevin's world).

Kevin also promises a wide selection of Schnucks Super Soda flavors that will hit the SPOT. But if Schnucks doesn't make the flavor you like, bring your own two-liter and there will be more for everyone to share. And just in case you like root beer, there will be plenty!

If you haven't signed up . . . ah, just come anyway, but for the record, the sign-up sheet will circulate again this Sunday in the SPOTfolder.

For last-minute details and a map, check the SPOTblog -- www.thespotsspot.blogspot.com.


Lesson Prep

This Sunday is the second week of Advent. I think of Advent as a four-week journey culminating with Christmas.

All of us are on a journey. Our journeys are individual, but, hopefully, with the same destination. Our theme this week is preparation. All journeys require preparation. I have found that the better you prepare, the bettter the journey will go.

I pray Christmas 2009 will be enriched through our preparation of Advent.

Hope to see you Sunday,
Don


College Care Packages

We have a first-hand report of care package delivery in the Chicago area, with a big thumbs-up for quality and, most importantly, quantity! While college students don't have the most sophisticated palates, consensus says the cookies were yummy!

Many thanks to the chefs who worked to make final exams week a tastier experience for all the Concord kids away from home!


Christmas Project

This is the final week to bring your items for the Missouri Baptist Children's Home. Donations were picked up last week, but there's still room for more. Let's fill up our box!!!

A comprehensive list of the items the Children's Home is seeking is included on the class blog. Check out www.thespotsspot.blogspot.com.
