CHRISTMAS EVE OFFERING 2024
LET'S MAKE A BIG IMPACT IN OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY!
This Christmas, we have an incredible opportunity to come together as a church family and community to make a lasting impact. Through our partnership with The Pack Shack, we aim to pack 20,000+ meals to help fight food insecurity in our community and beyond. This goal is made possible by combining what we will raise during our Christmas Offering with the funds from our Easter Offering ($5625) earlier this year. Let’s celebrate the season of giving by joining hands and hearts to bring hope and nourishment to those in need. Your generosity will shine the light of Christ into countless lives. Together, we can make a difference!

Events this Advent Season
Blue Christmas | 12/21 @ 6pm
Blue? Yes, blue as in the blues. As in "I am feeling blue." Not everyone is up and cheery for the Christmas holidays. Dealing with the death of a loved one, facing life after divorce or separation, coping with the loss of a job, living with cancer or some other dis-ease that puts a question mark over the future, and a number of other human situations make parties and joviality painful for many people. This service is reflective, accepts where we really are, and holds out healing and hope.
Christmas Eve | 12/24 @ 5pm
Celebrate the heart of Christmas with us at our Christmas Eve Worship on December 24th at 5pm! This special service is a beautiful time to gather, reflect on the joy of Christ’s birth, and share in the warmth of the season with family and friends. Come experience inspiring music with a string quartet, kids singing, a meaningful message, and the glow of candlelight as we worship together. We can’t wait to celebrate with you on this holy night!
