Weekly Announcements:
BECOME // SUPPORTING REVOLUTION WITH A YEAR-END GIFT
As we approach the end of the year, we want to encourage ourselves and everyone who considers Revolution their church home to consider supporting our church financially. What we do as a church, from maintaining staff, to meeting needs in our community, to renting our space at Germantown Elementary, is entirely self-funded by this community. So, as we head into the holiday season and many of us have gift giving and generosity on our minds, we want to encourage everyone to join us by supporting the work of this church. Revolution means a lot to many of us! If you would like to donate towards the ministry of Revolution, you can always learn more about ways to do that by visiting www.revolutionannapolis.com/giving, by looking on the app, or by asking a question on your Connect Card this week.
BECOME // SPRING GROUPS ARE COMING!
At the end of January, we will be launching our new slate of Connection, Workshop, and Local Groups for our spring semester…but before we can do that, we need ideas and leaders! If you have an idea for a group that sounds fun, helpful, or particularly welcoming for new folks taking their first steps in our church community—or if you would be interested in leading or hosting a spring group—please let Kenny know (kenny@revolutionannapolis.com) by January 15.
BELONG // BOOK AND SOUP GROUP
As we approach a potentially volatile election year, we are in need of encouraging words and a Jesus-centered tone. The Millers would like to welcome interested people to ther next "Book and Soup Group"! The meeting will be on Sunday, January 19, 4pm - 5:30pm, with soup at 5:30, at Julia Bigelow's home, 404 Halsey Road, Annapolis. The book discussion will be on I Think You're Wrong (But I'm Listening) by Sarah Stewart Holland (a Democrat) and Beth Silvers (a Republican). Sarah and Beth host a podcast and website called Pantsuit Politics. The book is "a guide to grace-filled political conversations". They artfully show how this can be done while unpacking various politically hot topics. Come to talk, come to listen, come to be challenged by these two thoughtful women. As always, read as much as you can - all are welcome! Call Fred (717-877-8667) or Cathy Miller (717-602-6917) for further info. RSVP is helpful in planning for soup.
BELONG // FAMILY RETREAT 2020
After having such fun last year, we’re very excited about Revolution’s 2nd Family Retreat in Berkeley Springs, WV! Our hope is that Family Retreat will be a time of rest, fun, and connection for the members of our Revolution family. Whether you’re new to camping or an old pro, Family Retreat is for you, and we hope you’ll join us! Save the date for April 23-26, 2020 (but feel free to come late or leave early).

BELIEVE // OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT BAPTISM
If you would like to learn more about what baptism is, why it is important to us at Revolution, or if you have questions about being baptized, please email Kenny at kenny@revolutionannapolis.com. There is no pressure, and he would love to talk with you about your questions about this very important part of Christian belief, teaching, and practice!
BELONG // REVMIDDLE AND REVHIGH
