2013 Christmas Craft and Vendor Fair Nov. 22

Are we really talking about Christmas time already? Well, we do have a way to go… but it’ll be here before you know it. Mark your calendar for the Ivy Chapel Christmas Craft and Vendor Fair. Last year’s event was a huge success, and we’re looking forward to an even bigger and better event this year. Come join us to shop local vendors, handmade crafts, baked goods, one-of-a-kind jewelry and more! Finish up (or start) your Christmas shopping, listen to some live Christmas music, visit with friends and pick up some snacks to eat now or later!

Check this site often for updates. As the event gets closer, we’ll post a list of upcoming vendors and other exciting things you’ll see at the fair.

And if you’d like to exhibit at the fair, drop us a line or call Erin Winship at 314-973-6507.

 

Mark your Calendar: HarvestFest, November 2

Ivy Chapel’s Annual HarvestFest is on this year thanks to a group of wonderful volunteers who have agreed to lead the project. Mark your calendar now for November 2. It’s an evening of wine and cheese, hors d’oeuvres, desserts, live music and more – all right here at Ivy Chapel. Proceeds from the evening and the silent and oral auctions will benefit local food pantries and other Ivy Chapel outreach programs. Watch this space for more details! For more details, send us an email and we’ll fill you in.

Save the date! Blessing of the Animals September 21

Come one, come all (yes, four-legged friends, that means you) to the Ivy Chapel Blessing of the Animals. This year’s blessing will spotlight the Missouri House Rabbit Society of St Louis. This all volunteer, not-for-profit organization’s dual purpose is to rescue bunnies and educate all potential bunny owners. Some products which they use on a daily basis include:  Paper towels, jugs of vinegar and laundry soap (Era HE or All free and clear). Any of these items would be greatly appreciated, as well as cash donations. Watch for more details.

Kick off the new school year with Ivy Chapel

It’s time for a new school year – and that means our youth groups and Sunday school classes are starting again, too. Join us for a special worship service on Sunday, August 18 at 10 am as we “Imagine.”

Imagine… Who does God want me to be?

Imagine…Who does God want us to be as God’s people?

Imagine… Who does God want us to be as a church?

Imagine… What would the world be like if we all lived
as God would like us to live?

Imagine!

Join us to Animate Faith!

Our Sunday morning adult education group (aka  Bible Study Group!)  will be starting a new series on Sunday, May 12.   We’ll be using a resource from Spark House called “animate FAITH.”   This is a series looking at FAITH from various perspectives.  Each week we will watch a short video featuring a contemporary Christian giving their personal take on an aspect of faith.  Then we’ll respond to the video with our own comments.  It will be enriching.  There are 7 sessions (God, Religion; Jesus; Salvation; Cross; Bible; Church).   This all begins Sunday, May 12.

We meet Sundays at 9 AM.  If you’ve ever toyed with the idea of getting involved, now is an ideal time for you to take part.  Join us as we explore new faith horizons together!
