Tuesday Morning Prayer. 9a-10a in Corner Coffee North Loop’s Kids Space.

Next Sunday, December 5 at 10a is our Christmas UNITED Service in the Neu Neu Studio across the hall from Corner Coffee North Loop (514 N 3rd Street). It’s one service bringing all of our communities together. Brunch potluck, kids’ Christmas program and more. Please bring a brunch item to share. We will eat at 10a and the service will start shortly thereafter. Sign up to help with the UNITED Service today—hosting, set up, tear down, table decorating.

We will be doing a gift card blessing for Tom and Trina Lyon at our UNITED Service. They are church planters in North Minneapolis that we support as a church. They are about to have their first child. Together let’s bless them!! Bring gift cards on Sunday and we will present them to Tom and Trina during the service.

Corner Church Missions Trip to Amman, Jordan is coming Feb. 3-11, 2023. Two things are coming up soon. On the evenings of December 1-3, there is an opportunity to raise some money towards your trip by helping at a Coffee Cart event. On Thursday, January 27, we are having an informational meeting at the Woller home. For more info on either of these things or about the trip in general, connect with Kim Heule at heulekimberley@gmail.com.

Sunday, December 26 we will have one in-person option at Corner Church North Loop at 10, or join the stream at cornerchurch.tv.
