Attend the Presbytery's Annual Christmas Luncheon

One week left to get your reservation in – Presbytery of Des Moines members and church staff are invited to the Annual Christmas Luncheon!


Where: Westminster Presbyterian Church, 4114 Allison Avenue, Des Moines

When: Wednesday, December 16, 2009, 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.

Who: All pastors, all church staff members and volunteers, and any other person wanting to attend from your church.

Cost: $6.00 per person payable at the door

This is for anyone in the Presbytery wishing to join us for lunch. Pastors, bring all the important people in your church so that we can meet them. If you don’t have a church, join us, anyway. If your church has no pastor at this time, we’d still like the important people from your church to join us.

Entertainment during the meal will be provided by your very own Presbytery staff members! Enjoy piano music provided by Rev. Phil Barrett and Kim Coulter. Betty Dyer and Nancy Lister-Settle will have their special stories to share as well. Maybe Rev. Goanar Chol will honor us with a Christmas carol in Neur? It's sure to make for a relaxing time during the busy holidays!

RSVP to the Presbytery Office at 515-276-4991 or pbydesmoines@presbyteryofdesmoines.org by Monday, December 14th. Don't forget to let us know the names of those who will be attending.

Lunch and Learn Sessions continue in 2009

The Presbytery staff is in the mode of discerning topics for the 2009 Lunch & Learn session. (This communications educational series was offered to all pastors, church staff and volunteers in the Des Moines Presbytery during 2008.)

And we need your help! If you participated in this year's monthly series, we need to know what you liked or disliked. Also, we're asking for your topic ideas for 2009 sessions. These can be anything related to communications or our various committee's and their mission work? Only the sky's the limit (no pun intended).

Click here and fill out the online survey. It should take approximately 3 minutes to complete. Thanks for your time and thoughts!

Mark your calendars! They will be held on the third Thursday of the month normally (except January), for an hour, starting at Noon, at the Presbytery office, 2400 86th St., Suite 20, Urbandale, IA:
