Announcements

Church council will not meet this month.

Join in the fun Sunday the 18th as we go caroling at a local nursing home and come back to the church for a soup dinner. We will meet at the church at 4:00 and plan to be back to eat around 6:00. Look for food recommendations in the near future.

There will be no Sunday school on December 25th or January 1st to allow more time with family.

We are working to update our online directory. Please go to mennochurch.net/members to make sure that your contact information is up-to-date and accurate. If not, please email any changes to adstrickland@gmail.com.

Please Prayer For:

  • The Waynesboro Area Refuge Ministry (WARM) as they plan to open their doors to the homeless tomorrow.
  • A.J. Jones as he heals from a broken arm and praise God that his tumor was benign!
  • Those traveling during this holiday season.

John 1:20, “He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, ‘I am not the Messiah.’”


Thank you for joining us in worship today.  If this is your first time at Staunton Mennonite,
please fill out the “Welcome” card in the back of the pew and place it in the offering plate.
