Join us from 5:00 - 6:30pm for our annual Congregational Celebration, a time to come together as a church family to share stories, express gratitude to our leaders, and celebrate our incredible staff and volunteers. We'll also commission new leaders and handle a bit of church business. We've combined the event with our Thanksgiving service to create space for us to give thanks to God as a community. We will also collect gifts for our three Christmas stores. Light snacks and drinks will be provided, and all ages are welcome.
We are also excited to celebrate Doug and Deb Tensen as Doug prepares for retirement at the end of December. Doug has faithfully served in ministry since 1988, and for the past 27 years, he has been an integral part of Orchard. We are so thankful for his dedication and impact on our church community. Please feel free to bring a card to encourage Doug and Deb as they step into this new season of life.
This is a perfect opportunity to contribute to our Christmas stores! Please consider bringing a new, unwrapped toy (retail value $10-$40) or making a financial donation to support Christmas in Walnut (Cedar Falls), Christmas in Grundy County, or Holiday Shoppe (Waverly).
