Christmas Boxes
Saturday, December 14, 9 a.m.; Check in at Lobby

As the holiday season approaches, Eastminster is continuing our tradition of helping others through providing a Christmas meal. We’ll fill and deliver boxes full of delicious food to those in our community who may not otherwise have a holiday dinner. This is a great opportunity for families to serve together, and even the littlest hands are welcome. The morning includes both packing boxes and personally delivering them to families around our community.

GIVE: We’re able to provide these meals each year because of your generosity. $40 fills a box, and we welcome your gifts. Click here to give directly to the Holiday Food Boxes project >>

First Wednesdays
Imagine if Wichita were covered in prayer 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. That is the goal of the 24-hour Prayer Initiative led by the Wichita Prayer Movement. We’re partnering with other local churches, each taking one day per month, to commit to having someone praying for our city every hour of the day. We can’t wait to see how God moves as we intercede for Wichita! We’ll cover the first Wednesday of each month. We encourage signing up for a 60-minute slot, though 30-minute slots are available. Between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m., please come to the Eastminster Prayer Room to pray, and after those hours individuals may pray in their homes. SIGN UP TO PRAY >>

with guest speaker Julie Jaderston

What happens when we encounter the real Jesus? A personal encounter with Jesus will completely change our lives. Jesus wants to encounter you, to change your life, to walk beside you, and to take you on an amazing adventure with him. He sees us, he stops for us and he meets us right where we are, and gives us exactly what we need. Where are you at this Christmas? What do you need from Jesus? Join Julie for a morning of festive refreshments and experiencing Jesus’ call to journey with him.

Register by December 2. Child care is available with advance registration. There will be an opportunity to donate toward our partners at Westminster Woods.
