There is a lot happening around the Park during the Christmas season. Check out the latest below…

Christmas Gifts via Blueprint: This year we are excited to be partnering with Blueprint Ministries and their Christmas gift delivery for the third year in a row. As you know, Blueprint Ministries is one of our missional partners. Each year they give us the opportunity to buy gifts, food, and essentials for the families they serve year round. If you took a card with gifts listed on them from the Blueprint Christmas trees, please wrap and bring those gifts back to church this Sunday, December 16.

On the afternoon of December 16 @ 3PM we will meet downtown at Blueprint to deliver the gifts. You do not have to attend the gift delivery to buy gifts, we can deliver them for you. Also, if money is tight this year you do not have to buy gifts to attend the delivery. Most often the greatest gift we give is the gift of presence and prayer. If you have any questions please stop by the table outside or ask Scott or Chris.

Christmas Eve Service: This year we are excited to be having a Christmas Eve service! We will be having it at 5pm at Blueprint Ministries facility located at 2926 South Presa Street, 78210. We hope you can join us as we celebrate the birth of the Savior!

No Sunday services on December 23rd and 30th: The school will be shut down for the Christmas break. We hope you can join us on December 24th at Blueprint for the Christmas Eve service mentioned above. If not, we will see you back at Huebner Elementary on January 6th, 2013.

Prodigal Son Teaching Series: For the first couple of Sundays in January we will be looking at the story of the prodigal son. It is an amazing story of rebellion, redemption and grace. You may be surprised by what you find as you study it. Read through this story found in Luke 15:11-32 for the sermon on January 6, 2013.

Online Giving: People tend to ask us how to give financially at the Park. Since we don’t pass a plate, you can drop your donation in the box as you come into the cafeteria on Sundays. Or, you can give online at www.theparksa.org. Thank you for giving financially! If you have questions email Chris at chris@theparksa.org.

Volunteering on Sundays: As our community continues to grow, there are always needs with regard to volunteering on Sundays. We ask people for a once-a-month commitment to reinforce the fact that your primary ministry exists outside of Sunday mornings. If we all take one Sunday per month, we can keep that focus alive. Interested to jump in on Sundays in Family Ministries or Set-Up/Take-down? Email Scott at scott@theparksa.org.

 

Staff & Volunteer Highlight:

The Park is a new, and relatively small church, but our logo has has received a lot of recognition, thanks to Bobby & Kim Arispe donating their gifts and time to creating The Park’s logo, branding and marketing.  You can see us @ http://churchrelevance.com/resources/top-church-logos/ scroll down, we are on there. We go way back with the Arispe’s.  They were all in from the first mention of planting a church.  They have been a consistent resource throughout the past 3 years and continue to give of their time and gifts.  In addition to being generous they also happen to be very good at what they do.
Whether you are launching a new brand, hosting an event, or celebrating a special moment, the  goal at Arispe Creative is to intellectually and emotionally inspire your audience. We specialize in photography,  branding, marketing materials, invitations and more. See our latest work at ihttp://www.facebook.com/arispecreative) or visit http://arispecreative.com

 

Have a great weekend! We look forward to seeing you at Huebner Elementary at 10am!

Chris
