Gift Brick Purchase Campaign
Commemorate Your Child & Family!

Gift Bricks Will Line the Front Entry Sidewalk

The purpose of the "Gift Brick" Campaign is to raise funds for the renovations to our
preschool entrance. Purchasing a brick is a fantastic way to commemorate a family's
or child's time at Woodmont Christian Preschool and Church. You can customize a
brick for your entire family, one for each child, or even in honor or memory of
someone special. The bricks will be located at the new front entry sidewalk.
With your donation you will be able to personalize a 4" x 8" brick. Each brick is $100.
Up to three lines of text are available with 14 characters per line (spaces
and punctuation counts as characters.)
You may purchase bricks by visiting: wcps.donationbricks.com

completes each trip is astounding.

Woodmont & The Nashville Food Project.

p.m. on Sundays, Nov. 9, 16 and 23. Checks payable to Troop 92 or cash are

added. Wreaths will be available for pick up on Sunday, Nov. 30, from 9:00 a.m. 12:30 p.m. under the Porte-Cochre on the south end of the building. If this is not
convenient, please let us know and we can arrange alternate times/places.
Please make reservations for 5-Star Dinners!
In prior weeks, there were attendees without reservations. While we stretched the food
supply to cover them, we may not always be able to do so. We purchase meals based on
the number of reservations made. Please double check your schedule each week and
make reservations - it's never been easier or more convenient to do so online! When you
make reservations online, you receive a confirmation email right away. Visit the link below
and bookmark it on your computer, phone, tablet, etc.. to easily return to it each week. You
may also fill out the Sunday connection card, email rvaughan@woodmontcc.org, or call
the church office at 297-8563. PLEASE NOTE that this Wednesday is a Missional
Wednesday Dinner. The process for making reservations is the same as 5-Star Dinner.
Thank you for your consideration and understanding.
