We are continuing our Surge 2016 @ the Movies message series... and it's going to be great. Sadly, today we're doing Inside Out. See what I did there with the sadness? Remember, we're not the band, the whole room is the band, so turn it up to 11!

Our special music today is Everybody Hurts by REM
God doesn't need your money, turns out that He is loaded with cash already. But He blesses folks with a generous heart. 

Small groups are going well, and you're invited! Check the website or talk to Emily about the best way to get connected!


The Marine Band is doing The Planets at NOVA today at 2pm, it's going to be amazing – and our very own Karen Reiss will be playing the harp.
Next week we will be talking about Selma and Dwaine is very excited about this message, it's going to be a good one.
​

Thanks and we will see you soon!

Mid-Service: Connection Cards, KidQuest, snacks, special music is Heart Like Mine by Miranda Lambert.

God doesn't need your money, turns out that He is loaded with cash already. But He blesses folks with a generous heart. 

It's Imperialistic Land Acquisition Sports Day! Watch as your favorite teams try to take land away from the other teams in a fit of Manifest Destiny!

In all seriousness though, we like to pick the winner of a sporting event based on mascot.  Today, that is the Carolina Giant Hungry Cats vs. the Denver Shetland Ponies. So in the wild, which one would really win?  In this case, the panthers would wait for the broncos to come out of the tunnel... they would pick off one of the weaker, older ones - and eat him.  So I'm going with the panthers!


Today we have Superbowl Parties happening! At E's house and Joni's place... starting at 5:30.  Bring your favorite super bowl snack and drinks and we'll see you there!

Also, we will be running our movie series in Feb as a run-up to the Oscars. Avengers, Selma and Inside Out will be watched and commented on by our team of trained movie goers.

Two other things related to giving... we have a new online portal, check out the Wave or the website, it's easier and better so there you go. Also, a copy of last year's budget vs. actual is by the offering boxes for anyone interested.

We are continuing our second installment of a SOTM (Sermon the Mount) message series... SOTM Revisited and it's going to be great. I checked, and we are the only church in America that is using a clip from Southpark as part of our service. So fasten your seatbelts!
We'll be doing Chris Stapleton's Traveller, but sadly, no one will be wearing a hat.

But He blesses folks with a generous heart. 2015 Giving statements will be going out along with a top line sheet of budget / expenses. We love that our financial books are open – anyone here can easily see where every dollar is going – it speaks to the integrity of our leadership and the kind of church we want to be.

Also, we will be running our movie series in Feb as a run-up to the Oscars. Avengers, Selma and Inside Out will be watched and commented on by our team of trained movie goers. Sadly, Milo and Otis did NOT make the cut, but there is always next year.  More details coming soon!

We hope everyone is having a great weekend, just a couple of announcements!

We're talking about Christmas and why it’s 70 degrees outside today!

A lot of folks in our area consider a special gift for year-end giving… make sure that is here, or post-marked this year for tax purposes and thank you for your generosity!
​
Cookies! Our ladies got together yesterday to bake cookies for our community, to deliver to businesses and other local folks just to let them know that we love them.

Caroling!
When: TODAY! Sunday, December 20th, 2:15pm (for orientation and singing starting at 2:30)!
Where: Powhatan Nursing Home (2100 Powhatan St., Falls Church)

- We will be meeting for Christmas Eve this year, pre-service music at 2:30 (service from 3-4pm)
- We will NOT be meeting the weekend after Christmas - so you'll have some time to relax with family and friends... that will be Sunday, Dec 27th, immediately after Christmas...
- Star Wars was terrible!  Don’t go see it!  It was like watching a cat cough up a giant hairball for 2 hours and 16 minutes. (E hasn’t actually seen it yet, so send spoilers his way immediately).

​Stay safe and we’ll see you soon!
