Hi Ladies!
I hope you are having a wonderful day! Thank you to all of you who helped make Friday Feast a huge success. It was a packed house and more lifties are coming to church on Sundays! Please continue to pray for their hearts to grow closer to Jesus and to invite others to come to Alpine Chapel. I am so encouraged by our growth and know we are doing good work for the Lord. This week in Bible study we will be discussing the Sunday sermon and having our annual Christmas brunch. Don’t forget about our Ladies Night Out this Thursday!! See below for more details.
As I said last week, there is so much going on at Alpine Chapel in the coming weeks. Please take time to read through this email and prayerfully consider serving in whichever way you are able to: Friday Feast, Sunday service childcare, and/or Christmas Eve Services set up. God does amazing things in your heart when you say yes to Him in any type of service: meeting someone new, having an encouraging conversation, or just being joy-filled because you are serving Him and you can feel His presence. It’s also so much fun!!!
I hope you enjoy the rest of your evening and I look forward to seeing many of you Wednesday at 10:30 am down in the Well. For those who are away for the season, we miss you dearly and can’t wait to have you back. For those who are here and haven’t joined us in a while, I encourage you to come back! We would love to have you and want you a part of our Sisterhood in Christ. Just know you are all loved and prayed for!
Cheerfully in Christ, Julie
Down in the Well from 11-12:30 pm MST

If you would like to join in our cookie exchange, bring 2 dozen of your favorites and a container to take others home!

Volunteers Needed for Setting Up for Our Christmas Eve Service
*We are looking for volunteers to help set up for our Christmas Eve Service on Sunday, December 22 beginning at 1 pm. We will meet outside the Palm Theater. Please let me know if you are willing and able. We are hoping to have around 20 people!
New Service Time!
Beginning Sunday, December 22 we will add an additional service time at 10:30 am! We will still have our 9 am service that offers childcare for ages 0-5th grade. The second service will begin at 10:30 am, but will not have childcare. We would love if you would consider volunteering to help in our childcare (babies or elementary age) at 9 am and then enjoying the second service after. If you would like to help with childcare, please reach out to Conor Craft at conor@thealpinehapel.com.
Friday Feast
Our first Friday Feast was AMAZING! The chili was a huge hit and they wiped it out! Not only was the food a blessing, but the lifities lingered afterwards and stayed later than expected which was wonderful! There were fruitful conversations and they felt loved. We are so excited to do the next one! A detailed email will be coming out mid- week, so be looking for that message. We hope you can be there to help serve in such a great outreach program.
When: Friday, December 27th, from 5-7 pm.
Where: The Well, at The Alpine Chapel.
Why: We will offer food and fellowship for approximately 65-70 seasonal Telski lifties and Gondola Operators. It is also a great way to express God’s love for them!
What can you do: We are looking for people in our congregation and community like
yourself, to contribute a food item. Click this link to see our needs to make this an amazing Christmas dinner: Friday Feast Sign Up Genius
