Family and Friendship
Very important! We will have a different schedule for Sunday morning activities. The new schedule will not start until Sunday June 3. This is summer schedule. We will go back to normal schedule again in August.
Our activities are all in simple English. We also have childcare for young children.
The church bus can give you a ride if you live on or near campus. We will announce the summer bus schedule after May 27.
Church of the Nations does have English Conversation during the summer – but not during the month of May. We take a break in May because it is such a busy month for many people. We look forward to seeing you again in June!
Because of Holy Week and Good Friday. Our next English Conversation meeting will be Friday April 13.
Please join us for free lunch this Sunday December 4 starting at 11:45 a.m. after our morning worship! This will be a holiday meal with traditional foods for Thanksgiving and Christmas. But most of all bring yourself and a friend! We also have our regular Sunday morning activities including Bible study (in simple English) and worship (in simple English). Please note we have an *early schedule* until January 1 2012.
The church bus can pick you up at:
Very important! Our Sunday morning schedule will be different during the Advent/Christmas season. Starting this Sunday November 27 our schedule will be:
This will be our Sunday schedule from November 27 to January 1 2012.
We will not have English Conversation again until January 2012.
We do this every year because December is a busy month with exams, papers, graduation, traveling, and special Christmas activities. Church of the Nations will have several special Christmas activities. We will post these on this website and also let you know about these by email.
Daylight savings time starts this Saturday November 5 at midnight. Remember “fall back, spring forward“.
Before you go to bed on Saturday make sure you change your clocks so they are one hour earlier. If you forget to do this you will miss our activities this weekend because you will be one hour too early. Daylight savings time means we all get one extra hour!
You should not have to change cell phones or computers. They usually change automatically.
This Saturday November 5 is a “church work day” from 9:00 a.m. to 12 noon.
What is a “church work day”? It is a day when we help take care of the wonderful church property that we enjoy using. We might clean, paint, repair. We also need people to help with drinks, snacks, and encouraging volunteer workers. No one has to participate. But if you have time Saturday morning and would like to help you will be very welcome. There will be something to do for everyone. There will be a volunteer supervisor who has a list of things for us to do.
Church of the Nations has been asked to help this Saturday. There will be four other groups from University Baptist Church. If you come make sure you wear “work clothes” – clothes that can get dirty.
No English Conversation this Friday November 4. Instead we encourage you to join us Sunday morning for free lunch after regular activities.
We are very sorry but we have to cancel English Conversation this week because of something unexpected. We will see if we can schedule an extra English Conversation time to make up for this.
We still encourage you to join us Sunday morning for Bible study and worship and then Sunday evening for Fall Fest.
