A Month in ReviewA Month in Review The month of November began with a beautiful
remembrance of those we have lost in the past
year. The All-Saint’s Day service is always a
way to celebrate the life of Summit Square
Residents. We were given the privilege to
enjoy musical performances including a sold
out show to “My Fair Lady”, Schola Cantorum
of Waynesboro, and Gail Epps giving us a taste
of some good ole folk music. We want to thank
everyone for braving the chilly weather to join
us for some kettle corn, chili and cornbread
during our Fall Carnival! Pat Cantrell and High
Country sang their hearts out during this
celebration and there were quite a few local
first responders who came out so that we could
show our appreciation for everything they do,
not only for Summit Square, but for the City of
Waynesboro.
Oh, and who can forget our trek to Short Pump
for a mystery lunch with a mystery guest?
Elizabeth Witmer joined us for our food and
shopping excursion. Can’t wait for next
month!

During the four weeks of Advent, we
are called to prepare ourselves for the birth
of the Christ-child. This year we will have two
resources available to celebrate Advent, 2017.
Bible Study: If you think you know the story of Jesus’
birth, think again! We will be looking at the Christmas
story through the eyes of Joseph. Author/pastor, Adam
Hamilton, has written an intriguing study called Faithful.
Hamilton writes, “From his beginnings as a humble
carpenter to his all-important role as the earthly father of
Jesus Christ, Joseph’s place in the Nativity story is
sometimes overlooked. But Joseph’s life contains valuable
lessons for all of us. His courageous actions were crucial to
the birth of Christ and God’s salvation plan for humanity.”
Join me each Tuesday at 10:00 in the Wellness Center
Conference Room for our Advent bible study. Books are
available for purchase in my office for $13.50. A copy will
be provided in the library for your convenience.
Daily Devotionals: Grab your own free copy of the
devotional booklets available for daily readings during the
Advent Season. This resource will help us focus on the true
meaning of the Christmas Season with short excerpts of
scripture, a thoughtful meditation and a daily prayer. Take
the few minutes to start your day off right!
Blessings for a Very Merry Christmas,
