DUMC’S ANGEL TREE 2023
ANGEL TREE 2023
This mission is in support of our local community-families from Dacula Elementary & Alcova Elementary.
Last year we were able to provide Christmas for 30 children!
Please support this mission by choosing an angel from our tree in the back of the sanctuary or by making a selection from our Virtual Angel Tree by using the link below.
Angels will be available to pick beginning November 14th through December 3rd.
PLEASE NOTE-We ask that you purchase only what’s listed on the angel as we are trying to balance the number of gifts received by all the children in one family. If you are willing to purchase multiple outfits instead of one outfit, please select another angel versus bringing in multiple things for the same child.
All unwrapped gifts (with the angel tag attached or the online code attached) are due back to Dacula UMC by December 11th.
Contact Melissa Lord with questions or if you would like to help!

DUMC’S CHRISTMAS MUSICAL 2023
CHRIS-MYTH BUSTERS CHRISTMAS MUSICAL
Sunday, December 3rd
6pm
in the Sanctuary
This event is open to all who want to attend!
Alaina has a new sister, Michelle. Only Michell’s not a cute little bundle of joy. She’s a pretty big kid…adopted…and a bit of an annoying trivia buff. When Michelle starts busting some myths about Christmas to Alaina’s friends, it causes quite a stir. Thay all begin to wonder: How many Wisemen? Was there an innkeeper? Was Jesus really born in December? After reading the biblical account of the birth of Jesus, the kids are confused. Through it all, Michelle learns that even though some facts about the very first Christmas might not be clear, the truth about why Jesus came is everywhere in Scripture.
HANGING OF THE GREENS SERVICE
Wednesday, November 29, 2023

The Hanging of the Greens Service is a traditional Christian ceremony of decorating the church for the Advent and Christmas season. During this service, the Youth will be reading scripture and explaining certain things such as, “Why do we call the big tree in the sanctuary a Chrismon Tree, and what is Chrismon? and “What is the importance of the Advent wreath?” Accompanied by the music of the Handbell choir, this service will be both informative and inspirational.
