Christmas is coming ....

.... and just the right gifts can be found in the synod “Gifts of Hope” catalog, which offers gifts that fund a variety of local and global church efforts. Examples of gifts are the Greater Chehalis Food Bank, Peace Community Center in Tacoma, or the Tanzania-Safi Foundation in Africa. To learn more or to receive catalogs, contact Ann Miller at (253) 862-1050. In the six years of the catalog, more than $76,000 has been raised for good causes.

The musical-minded are reminded to get their tickets now for Pacific Lutheran University’s anticipated Christmas concerts. They return to Tacoma, Portland and Seattle this winter and again will feature the Choir of the West, the university’s chorale and members of its symphony orchestra. Three performances are slated for Tacoma at PLU’s Lagerquist Concert Hall. They take place at 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3; 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 4; and at 8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 9. In Portland, a concert will be at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 30, at Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. In Seattle, it will be at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 5, at Benaroya Hall.
