Experience the wonder of Christmas Eve with a traditional candlelight service at 8:00 pm on Tuesday, December 24. As we gather together to celebrate the birth of Christ, we will sing beloved carols, hear inspiring messages and reflect on the true meaning of the season.

Your generous Christmas Eve offerings will support H.I.S. Kids, walking with families through childhood cancer, navigating the challenges together and discovering love in the journey.

All adults are invited to participate in an Advent Bible study this holiday season. The Disrupting Darkness series, a powerful adult study series that explores how Christ’s light breaks through the darkest places in our lives and the world, will begin with a retreat on Sunday, December 1 from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm with lunch included. This is followed by weekly Wednesday meetings at 11:00 am on December 4, 11 & 18 and January 8 & 15. During each session, we will gather to reflect, discuss and prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus—the Light of the World. While attendance at each study meeting is recommended, it is not required.

The Christmas season (December 25th through January 6th) is about to begin! Christmas resources for children, families and adults are currently available in the Church Lobby. Let’s prepare our hearts together. Grab one, or more, to help you draw closer to Jesus this Christmas season.

All are invited to attend yoga class every Thursday: Chair yoga in the Parish Hall from 5:45–6:15 p.m. and floor yoga in the gym from 6:30–7:15 p.m.  No experience is necessary, and no specific equipment is required.  If you have yoga props (mat, blocks, etc.), you are invited to bring them.  If not, mats and other supplies will be available to lend out.   (Yoga can even be practiced without props).  Mark your calendar for a little self-care, and let’s fill our cups so that we can continue to help others.
