What a wonderful time to be in Port O’Connor at Christmas! The annual Seniors Christmas Luncheon was a fantastic event! The Port O’Connor Community Service Club did an outstanding job on the decorations! It was a very elaborate Social Event that everyone enjoyed. Over 200 people attended the luncheon and over 40 plates were delivered to people unable to attend. The Mexican Food served was delicious. The entertainment by the entire Port O’Connor School Children was fantastic. Outstanding Christmas songs were sung by the Children.

On Saturday, December 5, the boats started arriving from the Houston area at Clark’s dock with hundreds of toys and bicycles for the children. Immediately after unloading all the toys, the boat owners and crews began decorating their crafts for the 24th. Annual Boat Parade on the Water Front. What a Parade it was!

A night’s drive around Port O’Connor gives you a glimpse of the beautiful Christmas decorations placed on the homes and businesses.

The Church held their Annual Christmas Party on Sunday Evening, December 13, along with their Quarterly Birthday Bash. It was really a fun event and well attended – a great way to begin our Christmas celebration.

The Church Choir will present “The Birth Of Jesus”, in music, on Sunday morning, December 20, 2015 in the 11:00 a.m. service. The music, directed by Raymond Grant, will include the following:

“He Is Born”, “Joy To The World”, “O Little Town Of Bethlehem”, “Away In A Manger”, “Born In Bethlehem”, “Hark The Herald Angels Sing”, “Angels We Have Heard On High”, “O Come All Ye Faithful”, “Go Tell It On The Mountain”, “Isn’t He”, “Emmanuel”, And “Glory In The Highest”.

The Church Van carried 15 Church Members to Cuero this past week to visit the Christmas Lights. Everyone enjoyed the trip and the free hot chocolate served on Thursday night.

The Church has set a Goal of $1,200 for the Annual “Lottie Moon” Offering for International Missions. This Goal should be reached before Christmas!

See you in Church Sunday!!
