Christmas Eve Candlelight Worship
Monday December 24th at 7:00 pm
Christ the Savior is Born!
Certainly it is a familiar message, yet it never loses its wonder and awe.
Once again we will focus on the incredible love of our gracious and faithful God.
This is the God who sent his Son into the world to bring peace and righteousness to all people.
This will be a service of music and lessons which will draw our hearts away from the world
with
its distractions, and will bring us closer to our Lord to see the great things he had done for us.
Refreshments and fellowship will follow.
Christmas Day Worship
Tuesday December 25th at 9:30 am
The celebration of our Savior's birth continues.
We consider what God accomplished with the birth of his Son,
what could ever compare with this,
or become an acceptable substitution for this - the greatest of all gifts.
This is why we make it our sincerest desire to come and worship the new-born King, again on Christmas morning.
Make the worship of the Christ Child your first priority and the best tradition for the day.
