Christmas Gathering 2008
Tuesday, November 25th, 2008Living Waters Community will be hosting a Christmas Gathering on Friday December 12th, 2008 at Rolling Hills Conference Center in Calera. The Gathering is open to everyone. This includes friends and family that have not been on an Emmaus Walk before. The Community will start gathering around 6:00 pm for a time of fellowship. We will eat dinner at approx 6:45 pm. The meal will be potluck. Please bring an entrée, dessert, and soft drinks with you. All the dinnerware will be provided. This will be a special time of reunion, worship, and fellowship. This will be the last gathering at Rolling Hills. The Living Waters Emmaus Board has decided after many months of prayer and research to re-locate the Walks/Flights to Camp Boothe in Bibb County. There are many reasons why this new location has been chosen and more will be explained at the Gathering.
We will have a special Christmas Peace Tree set up this year as well. There will be a special ornament for you to take home with you.
Holy Communion will be celebrated.
Come enjoy the music, and fellowship. We will sing Christmas classics as well as Emmaus favorites.
The new camp does not provide any of the bed linens, towels, toiletries. Sponsors and Pilgrims will be instructed to bring these items. The offering that we collect at the gathering will be used to purchase these items to be used as spares in the event that they are needed. If you’d rather, please consider donating any of the following items for use during our weekends. All of this will be needed for the upcoming girl’s flight in January 2009, as well as the upcoming walks in the spring.
Twin bed sheet set (All beds at the new camp are twin)
