A very big THANK YOU to all of you who bought gifts for the children on the Angel Trees.  The children of The Home for Little Wanderers will have a better Christmas because of your generous hearts!  God is pleased that we were able to take care of some of his little ones at this time when so many are focused on the over abundance of Christmas.  The toys and gifts will be delivered directly to the children and their families!

The WCCOC will hold its Annual Meeting and Election on Wednesday, 12/19. We will hold our General Meeting and Election on Wednesday, December 19, 2007, during All Church Midweek. We will be filling three positions on our Board of Directors. Any member may nominate another member, with their consent, who they believe possesses both the business acumen and spiritual fitness to represent God’s church in a manner that glorifies Him. The nominee candidates will be reviewed by the Board, then the Leadership Group, to establish a final list of nominees that will appear on the ballot.

Hearts Tournament: On Saturday, December 22nd at 6:00 p.m., we will be having our First Annual WCCOC Hearts Tournament. It will be held at the Jette’s house and we’ll order out pizza. Please let us know ASAP if you’re interested, so that we can decide on the format of play. Further details, talk to Eric Jette or Tom Caswell.  Thanks, Eric

Sherry’s House in Worcester is in need of volunteers.  Sherry’s House is a home that meets the needs of children in New England who are undergoing treatments for childhood cancer and their families.  They are in need of volunteers to clean the house. The house is very large with many rooms but any consistent cleaning time you are able to donate would be appreciated.  Please see Chris or Michelle Charon with questions.
