There is something for everyone at this fun-filled event. Enjoy a wonderful pancake breakfast prepared by the United Methodist Men. After breakfast, there will be a LIVE auction & a silent auction in the Family Life Center. Bid items in the live auction include a Hunting and Fishing Equipment, Hotel Package(s), Spa Package(s), a Nolan Ryan Signed Baseball, Council Oak Handled Knives, a quilt made by Heart to Heart Quilters, a Santa Paws basket that includes a free pet adoption, a late-season dove hunt at the 3L&J Ranch in Georgetown and more! The silent auction will also have an array of exciting items to bid on. These auctions are a perfect opportunity to find unique Christmas gifts, while benefiting the Church! And, they are a lot of fun, so don’t miss out.

While the adults shop at the auctions, volunteers will supervise activities for the kids upstairs in Building 5. They will enjoy such things as Christmas caroling, crafts, games, stories, movies, and a cake walk. Parents, you can avoid the hassle at the mall and get a picture of the kids with Santa in Payne Cottage. Finally, we will enjoy a mouth-watering sausage and pork loin lunch, also prepared by the United Methodist Men!
A special feature is an opportunity to request a Letter from Santa...personalized and sent to your child! Click here for the Santa Letter Request Form. The deadline for ordering Santa letters is December 9th.
We look forward to everybody attending this wonderful church-wide event and embracing in the fellowship of the Christmas season! Help us begin a new First Church Christmas tradition for the entire congregation!
