For the past two Christmases, we packed and wrapped several shoeboxes full of small toys, pens, pencils, and candies for Operation Christmas Child.
About once a month, women in the church have been meeting at Trudi's house at 8:30 (after her son goes to bed) to watch "chick flicks," such as "Hitch," "27 Dresses," and "Nanny MacPhee."

On one Sunday each summer, we have an all-church picnic at Larz Anderson Park.
What's Christmas without some Christmas Carols? For the past few years, we have met at the church to sing Christmas songs -- from Jingle Bells to O Holy Night -- and enjoy cocoa and cookies together.
