Christmas Caroling on December 9th!

On December 9th at 1:00 p.m., the members of the church and our Sunday School will go on our annual Christmas Caroling here in Raymond.  We will go out and bring holiday cheer to various members of our community, many of them elderly people who do not have the opportunity to go out much in the winter.   After the caroling, we will return to the church for hot chocolate and a birthday cake for Jesus. All are welcome to join in and bring cheer to members of our community! If you have questions, please see Lorna or call the church at 603-895-2362.
