Happy Thanksgiving, Friends!
I hope that all of you enjoy a great feast with your family and friends.
I hope that you have a productive hunt at the Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping (and all the shopping in between).
Yes! We have our December schedule. Be sure to read all of this Update so you are prepared!
I hope that you have begun your Christmas preparations and enjoy the Christmas decorations. Many people took advantage of the beautiful weather this past weekend to put up outdoor holiday lights (don't light them until after Thanksgiving!) There are many opportunities to enjoy the wonder of the community lights:
Circle of Lights Tree Lighting: November 28, 6:00 p.m., 1 Monument Circle
Noblesville Tree Lighting Ceremony: November 29, 7:00-8:00 p.m. at the Hamilton County Judicial Center in downtown Noblesville. Sing carols and hear Mayor John Ditslear read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.
Zionsville Christmas in the Village, November 30. The Christmas Parade steps off at 3:45 p.m., 5:00-6:00 enjoy activities. The Lighting of the Village and Tree will begin at 6:00 p.m. There are free carriage and trolley rides.

We met Tuesday at International Bible Study to talk about the story of the man who was healed by Jesus at by a pool (that was said to heal people) on the Sabbath (the Jewish Holy Day). The man offers excuses/blames for his actions or inactions: we discovered that when Jesus tells him to, "Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you (John 5:14) that Jesus was telling him to recognize that Jesus is God
We talked about customs in our home countries regarding aging adults and a little about our hopes for Black Friday shopping. We decided to try our luck at Christmas cookie baking next week for International Friends.
