Matthew 6:25-33

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to your span of life? 28 And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear?’ 32 For it is the gentiles who seek all these things, and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

2025 “Extra Mile” Stewardship Campaign

The October stewardship campaign was a tremendous success as we came together to tangibly commit our time and resources for the coming year. Thank you to everyone who has already made a commitment to support our ministries for 2025.

Despite this outpouring of generosity, the financial commitments received to date are $50,000 short of what is needed to fully fund next year’s budget. This budget includes operating costs for The Common Place as well as growth in Tapestry’s ongoing programs and ministries.

We are now asking that everyone consider additional gifts to help us meet this goal, either through a one-time gift or through an additional commitment over the next 12 months. What’s more is that we have multiple anonymous donors who are willing to provide matching funds.

We ask that you prayerfully consider what additional financial commitment you can make and complete the supplemental 2025 pledge card linked below. A print version will also be available at the Welcome Center on Sundays.

As a reminder, please only indicate any additional amount, as your previous commitment for 2025 has already been recorded.

If you would like to talk more specifically about this opportunity, feel free to reach out to Stewardship & Finance committee member Jonathan Purvis at jpurvis1998@gmail.com.

Dear Tapestry Church Family,

Each year at this time we have an opportunity to offer gifts of appreciation to the members of our church staff in the form of Christmas bonuses.

Please offer your gifts over the next few weeks either online or in an envelope for worship marked “Staff Christmas Gifts.” You can also send your gift by mail to the church office prior to December 15th.

Offering these Christmas gifts to staff is a long-standing tradition of ours and I know it means a lot to our staff members. Please join my family in offering these gifts of love and appreciation during this special season.

Thank you so much for your gifts!

Bill Bass, Chair of Tapestry Board

Staying Connected

THANK YOU to everyone for donating cranberries and butter for the Refuge Thanksgiving bags. Thanks to your generosity, we were able to exceed our goals of 250 of each!

Christmas Angel Tree

Are you looking for a way to help children this holiday season? Our Christmas angel tree can provide you with specific suggestions for families from The Refuge. Each ornament on the tree represents one gift item for a child. The child's age and gender are listed to aid in your purchase decision. Each unwrapped gift should be returned to Tapestry by Sunday, 12/15 and placed near the angel tree. Tape your ornament or number of your ornament to the gift. The reason for being unwrapped is so the adults can wrap it themselves, and the ornament number ensures the correct child receives it!

You can also pick your ornament online by Clicking Here. (The physical ornament will get pulled from the tree at church ASAP). Please fill in the information on the form with your name and phone number. Make sure you write down the ornament number, so you can tape it to the gift. Thank you for your generosity and thoughtfulness in providing a joy-filled Christmas to these families!

If you are not a shopper, and would still like to make sure the children receive their special gifts, your monetary donations can be accepted through the offering boxes, or given to me, Paula Peterson.

Please note that Risen Lord is also collecting Christmas gifts for a separate cause.

Thanksgiving Offering

The Thanksgiving Offering benefits the Colleges, Universities, Seminaries, and Divinity Houses affiliated with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Higher education has been an important focus for Disciples since the very beginning of the movement. Throughout our history, Disciples have founded institutions of higher learning to educate students and form leaders to make a difference in the world. The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is still committed to higher education. Your gift to the Thanksgiving Offering helps support the education of thousands of students at our fifteen colleges and universities as well as our seven seminaries and divinity houses.

As many of you know we have had a rough year. Our daughter was diagnosed with ALS,Lou Gehrigs disease, Bob fell off his ladder while trimming trees and fractured his femur, 6 ribs, scapula and collar bone. To finish it off we had a fire upstairs and had to move. Through all of this God sent us Jane and John Kixmiller, and all the wonderful people who have packed boxes. They have lead us through this rough year. Also those who have kept us in their prayers, helped with the move and given donations. God is great. Thank you God for our church family. We are truly blessed.

The Dill family.
