Upcoming Events

Sunday, Dec. 16th, at 11:00 am, we will rejoice with a wonderful time of music!  Our choir will share their Christmas cantata with us.  Our kiddos will also present their program, “The Friendly Beasts.”  Following worship, a very special guest will join us in the Family Life Center.

Thursday, December 20th is the day before the winter solstice, and one of the longest nights of the year.  Christmas can be a painful and difficult time because of the passing of a loved one, job loss, or other life events.  At 6 p.m., we will gather for a “Blue Christmas” service as we acknowledge our grief and remember the hopeful and healing love of Jesus that shines through the darkness.  This holy time will include prayer, reflection, and Holy Communion.

Sunday, December 23rd, at 10:00 am, kiddos of all ages and kiddos-at-heart are invited to celebrate a birthday party for Jesus with  cupcakes, party favors, and the reading of A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Monday, December 24th we will come together at 4:30 p.m. for a Christmas Eve candlelight service.  Worship on the holiest night of the year will be a wonderful time full of Christmas hymns and Scripture readings that tell the story of Jesus’ birth.   On this holy night, we will light the Christ candle and receive Holy Communion as we rejoice at the birth of Jesus and his light that shines on us. It is always a special moment as we hold those glowing candles and sing “Silent Night.”  This year, we celebrate 200 years of “Silent Night,” which was first sung on Christmas Eve, 1818.
