Christmas Schedule 2022
Reminder: The Christmas Schedule will be a little different this year since Christmas and New Year’s Day each fall on a Sunday. While we’d love to gather for worship on Christmas, realistically, most of us have many family obligations and it would end up just being Jeff standing alone and preaching to a camera––just like during the pandemic! So, we plan to celebrate on Christmas Eve and not gather to have a service in the building on Christmas Day.
Here’s the Plan for the rest of the Season:
December 18: Christmas—The Gift Foretold
The story of Christmas from Isaiah
Kids Church and Nursery at each gathering
December 24: Candlelight Christmas Eve Service, 6pm
All of us will worship together (No Kids Church or Nursery)
December 25: Closed–Enjoy the Day with Family & Friends
January 1: Join us for our Regular 10 am Worship Gathering
Christmas Presents for Kids due this Sunday (December 18)
As usual, we’re helping make sure some local kids get presents for Christmas.
If you selected a gift to buy for a child, the unwrapped gift should be returned by the end of our worship gathering on Sunday, December 18. All are welcome to hang out for the “wrap session” after the worship gathering as we prepare the gifts for the kids.
If you haven’t had a chance to grab a gift tag for the Christmas Gifts for kids, you can donate to “Love People” and we’ll do the shopping.
End of Year Giving
Thanks for considering Deep Water for your charitable giving this season. When you give, you are part of all the things we are doing here in Wyoming, the greater Dover area, and around the world. (That’s how those missionaries who visit and send newsletters get to do what they do!) We truly appreciate the generosity of the people who call Deep Water their home–and the people who support our efforts who don’t attend regularly.
All donations are tax-deductible. In order to receive tax credit for this year, the IRS requires that contributions be received or postmarked by December 31.
Feel free to give online (click here), by mail or in person on Sundays. Reminder: due to the holiday schedule, the last time to give in person is the Christmas Eve service.
Please mail checks to:
Gifts for Kids and Caroling
Reminder: We’re helping make sure some local kids get presents for Christmas. You can select a gift to buy for a child this week after the worship gathering on Sunday. All UNWRAPPED gifts should be returned by the end of our worship gathering on Sunday, December 18. Do you like to wrap? We’ll have a wrapping party after the gathering to prepare the gifts for the kids. Contact us to donate towards this project or to pick a gift for a kid from home.
Caroling: A group from Deep Water Church plans to spread Christmas joy by caroling on Friday, December 16 along North Layton, Broad St., Third St., and Camden-Wyoming Ave. You’re welcome to join in for the caroling! If you’re interested in joining in, meet at the building at 5:00 pm, contact us or fill out a Connection Card on Sunday.
Christmas Schedule 2022
Advent is a time of waiting, hope, and anticipation. It’s a time of joyful anticipation of the celebration of the coming of Jesus—while waiting and longing for His second coming. While we at Deep Water don’t celebrate with the traditional candles and other elements, we do look forward to the fulfillment of the promise of the coming of Jesus. Join us as we worship Him who came as light for the world!
With all the busy-ness, we’re going to slow down on Sunday mornings and look closely at the Story of Christmas. So, join us each week as we celebrate the coming of Christ and encourage each other in our faith.
The Christmas Schedule will be a little different this year since Christmas and New Year’s Day each fall on a Sunday. While we’d love to gather for worship on Christmas, realistically, most of us have many family obligations and it would end up just being a few of us gathered. So, we will celebrate on Christmas Eve and have no service in the building on Christmas Day.
Here’s the Plan for this Season:
December 4, 11 & 18: Christmas—The Gift Foretold
The story of Christmas from Isaiah
Kids Church and Nursery at each gathering
December 24: Candlelight Christmas Eve Service, 6pm
All of us will worship together No Kids Church or Nursery
