Join Us for the Annual Christmas Eve Candlelight Service at 7 PM

This Christmas Eve, we invite you to join us for our annual Candlelight Service at 7 PM, a beautiful tradition that brings the community together to celebrate the holiday season. The service will feature uplifting music, heartwarming readings, and a special time of reflection as we light candles to symbolize the peace and hope of Christmas. It's a moment to pause, connect with others, and experience the true spirit of Christmas in a meaningful way. Whether you're a long-time member or new to the community, we welcome you to come and share in this special evening of joy and light.

Festive Sounds Fill the Air as Truckee High Jazz Combo Performs Holiday Music

This past Sunday, the Truckee High School Jazz Combo took the stage at the Church of the Mountains to perform some festive holiday tunes. The talented group of students played a few classic Christmas songs with a jazzy twist, spreading holiday cheer to everyone in the audience. It was a cozy, feel-good event with the combo’s upbeat performance filling the church with warmth and music, making it a special afternoon of holiday spirit. It was a great way to kick off the season and see the students’ musical talents shine.

COM Supports New Rotaract Club

Church of the Mountains is donating meeting space for a new Rotaract Club that is meeting to launch their volunteer club in Truckee.

My name is Zoe Meyer (a local reporter for the Sierra Sun) and I am looking for more members to join my Rotaract club here in Truckee (18+-35ish). We actually just held our first meeting before Thanksgiving with about 7 people - great success! Joining a Rotaract Club offers a unique and rewarding opportunity to be part of a dynamic group of young professionals dedicated to personal growth, service, and community impact. If you're looking to enhance your leadership abilities, build valuable professional connections, and give back to your community, Rotaract provides an ideal platform. As part of this international network, you'll have access to mentorship opportunities and the chance to collaborate with like-minded individuals who share a passion for making a difference.

What's more exciting is that this Rotaract club will be built from the ground up in partnership with the Truckee Rotary Club, giving you the chance to shape its future. You'll have the flexibility to create the club's culture and structure, making it a true reflection of the community's values and energy. If you or someone you know are interested, please text me (Zoe) at 480-688-7545.

Holiday Elves Wanted as Christmas Eve Greeters

We are looking for a few folks who are filled with the Christmas spirit to volunteer as greeters at our Christmas Eve Candlelight 7:00pm Service. All that is required is to arrive by 6:30pm, bring your holiday cheer and joyful face, and greet folks at the door, wish them a Merry Christmas, and guide them to the service. If you're jolly to volunteer, please contact comumc@sbcglobal.net. Thanks in advance!
