Regular hours will resume on Monday, December 1. This Christmas you can live out being part of “real church” and serve others in our community and around the world! Giving Christmas is a way for our Small Groups and families to share the hope of the gospel. The Giving Christmas catalog has details for ways you and your family can give this season. Look for catalogs throughout the building. PRAY. GIVE. GO. Lottie Moon Christmas Offering A "people group" is the largest community in which the gospel can be shared without many barriers. There are about 11,250 people groups in the world; of those, more than 6,500 people groups remain unreached, meaning less than two percent are evangelical Christian. About 3,000 of those are unengaged – no one is working among them at all. Although many are hard to reach, they all need to hear the gospel. Let’s join in one sacred effort by giving to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. Our gifts to the offering support our missionaries who are working to share the love of Christ with those people groups still unreached and unengaged. Will you give so that others may hear? Look for Lottie Moon envelopes in the Worship Guide on Sunday mornings in the coming weeks. Christmas Concert December 2 Featuring the Samford University A Capella Choir The Samford University A Capella Choir will present a Christmas concert at 7:00 pm on December 2.

Marriage Prep Class For those engaged or considering marriage, Marriage Prep is a ten-week class to help you prepare for a God-honoring marriage. Topics include God’s design for marriage, conflict resolution, managing finances God’s way, biblical roles of husbands and wives and more. There is a $35 charge per couple to help offset the cost of materials. Some preparatory work is required, so please contact KC Armstrong, [email protected] or 205.985.7295, to register and receive further instructions, or to inquire about more information. The Marriage Prep class is a requirement to be married at Hunter Street or by a Hunter Street minister. Be a Neighbor Over 250 people have moved into a new house in our community in the last 90 days. Wouldn’t it be great if they came to Hunter Street and heard the gospel? You can help make that happen.
