Holiday Classic Champs!

Keelan and his team won the Chicago Holiday classic last evening! They went undefeated in the tournament and had to beat a pretty good team twice yesterday. See yous kids at the wedding. 

Volunteer Needed

We would like the Christmas Story read from Luke 2:1-20 at our Christmas gathering on December 26 at Keith & Cher's home.  Do we have a volunteer?

Keelan's Hockey Game

Keelan has a hockey game on Sunday December 20th at 5:20pm at Midwest Ice Arena in St John if anyone is interested in coming. This picture was taken after we won the Thanksgiving tournament, all the boys were excited to throw the sticks and gloves in the air. We have had a lot of fun this season and the team is pretty good.

Correction

Aunt Lee's Party is at the Heritage Protestant School, not the church.  ( hope this isn't confusing).
