Church Council invites the congregation to join in a Christmas service opportunity through Lutheran Social Services for Faith Mission, Deck the Halls. The project involves donating Christmas gifts for the Men's Shelter which includes a backpack filled with a travel mug, wallet, earbuds, and a large candy bar.  Council will be donating the backpacks, travel mugs, and wallets.  We are inviting you to take a backpack available at the rear of the church and fill it with earbuds and a large candy bar (or 2 regular-size bars) and return it to the box provided. We will collect through November 24! Thanks for your support!

As we look toward Advent and Christmas preparations (stores are doing it),   the Worship Committee invites you to bring in an angel ornament for a special Angel Tree.

Bible Study will be held on Wednesday at 6:30.  We meet by Zoom. The Zoom link on the front of the bulletin is all you need to join us.​

Attention Readers and Worship Assistants!  If you need to arrange a substitute or are swapping dates, please submit the change via email to office@hopecolumbus.com. Please copy Pastor Julianne and the person who has agreed to serve, and submit no later than the Sunday prior to the change. If a switch needs to be made after the “deadline”, please note that there is a chance it will not be updated in the bulletin in time. 

Of course, before we celebrate Christmas, we celebrate the season of Advent.  We’ll decorate on Saturday, November 30 beginning at 9:00 AM.  We will set up trees and other decorations.  It shouldn’t take too long.  We’ll be done in time for you to get home before The Game!

Will be held following worship service Sunday, December 15.  The main agenda item will include adopting the  2025 Budget.
