Missio Dei Community Weekly Announcements:

Christmas Eve
Our Christmas Eve service will be held at 5:00 PM at the Post Theater.  There will be childcare available for children through age 5.  There will be no corporate worship gathering on Christmas Day.

Advent Conspiracy Offering
This Sunday, as well as the first Sunday in January, will be another opportunity to participate in our Advent Conspiracy offering.  Along with our weekly offering, we will be taking a special Advent offering that will go directly to provide clean water to those without it, assistance to men, women, and children looking to leave polygamist communities throughout Utah, and to our community Haiti initiative.

Living Water: Organization building life-saving wells and filtration systems all around the globe. http://www.water.cc/

Holding Out HELP: Local organization serving families living in or desiring to leave polygamist communities in and around Utah. www.holdingouthelp.org

Haiti: A few folks from Missio Dei will be spending a week in northern Haiti in February exploring some potential partnership opportunities with ministries on the ground. www.hungryforlife.org, http://muchministries.org/

Holding Out HELP Volunteer Opportunity
As the FLDS community in Colorado City, AZ is experiencing some serious turmoil, it is critical that Holding Out HELP has a successful fundraiser/ awareness night on Saturday, March 3rd.  They are asking for donations of items that can be auctioned off, as well as volunteers to serve in the following areas (each area will have a head volunteer and a team to work with):

Food: prep, display, serving, clean-up
Tickets: sales, tracking tables
Marketing: design of tickets and posters, delivery of tickets to local churches
Silent Auction: recruiting items, packaging, pricing, preparing bidder sheets
Decorations: set up, tear down

Please email jessica@missiodeislc.com if you are interested in serving at Holding Out HELP’s fundraiser in any of these areas!

Merry Christmas!!
