Andrews Academy will be presenting the 48th annual Feast of Lights program. The community is invited to attend this spectacular night of music, Scripture and drama honoring the King of Kings. It is an evening of lights, bells, instruments, choral singing, congregational singing, shepherds, a Nativity scene, and the retelling of a glorious Christmas story. Chorale and Orchestra will end the program with four choruses from Handel's Messiah including the Hallelujah chorus at the end.

Join us in collecting toys for families that need some extra kindness during this holiday season. Bring a new, unwrapped toy to the church on December 14 to be collected during our children's Celebration of Christmas.

Pioneer would like to continue to brighten the Christmas season and bring a smile to struggling families. Next Sabbath, November 30, please stop by the Christmas Angel Tree located at the Welcome Center downstairs and the Narthex. Choose an angel from the tree, you can either donate (money, gift card, food, toys, etc) or buy a gift for them. You may bring your gift with the angel attached to it to Pioneer by December 18 (Wednesday).

The PMC Board voted on Nov. 11 to follow the recommendation of David Nowack, the Nominating Committee chair, to change the name of the Nominating Committee: it is now the Volunteer Engagement Committee or VEC for short. The change is the result of consultations with the pastoral staff and others to create a name that reflects the actions of the Committee and make it more understandable for the visitor, guest or new member.
