Throughout the Advent season, we have been patiently awaiting the Christmas holiday. This Sunday we will celebrate by lighting the final Advent candle and joining together in worship.

Please join us on Sunday evening for a service celebrating the Christmas season. The time will include lighting Advent candles, congregational worship, guest music specials, and Holy Communion. We pray this is a night filled with the power and love of the Holy Spirit, guiding our hearts to focus on the birth and Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amidst our busy holiday schedules, we look forward to this time where our attention is focused on God alone. Please consider making time to worship with us this Sunday evening.

Worship will begin at 5pm. After the service we will gather in Plummer Hall for a light meal and fellowship. Everyone is welcome! Join us!

Women's Christmas Party

Last night (Wednesday December 8th) the women of Plummerville UMC celebrated Christmas with a small party at our home. We had delicious chicken spaghetti, salad, bread, chocolate triffle, apple caramel cake, and hot cider. The picture is above is most of the 11 women in attendance.

We also celebrated by beginning our study of Strong Was Her Faith: Women of the New Testament. The book begins with the story of Elizabeth the mother of John. It was very appropriate for our Christmas celebration!

Luke 1:41-44
⁴¹When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit ⁴²and exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. ⁴³And why has this happened to me, that the mother of my Lord comes to me? ⁴⁴For as soon as I heard the sound of your greeting, the child in my womb leaped for joy.


We then had an ornament exchange as a celebration! Here are our cute packages all together.



Thank you to the women of our church for being such an encouragement to me. Your friendship has enriched my life and your commitment to this group is evident. I love that we only began 6 months ago, yet we have grown together and continue to strengthen our friendships.

Merry Christmas.

Jill Womack
