Network Gathering

Network Christmas Gathering – December 21

The Advent season is here! Karla and I have enjoyed following along with the Advent Project at Biola University over the years. Perhaps you’ll find it to be a refreshing way to prepare for Christmas as well? And speaking of Christmas… Come together with Simple Church communities and friends this Christmas for a special potluck lunch! We will enjoy Christmas music, a reading of the Christmas story, and anything else you’d like to share.
