How are you celebrating Christmas this year? As you look ahead and begin to plan, we remember why we celebrate Christmas in the first place.
We know that Christmas is about Jesus, but sometimes it’s just too easy to think Christmas is about lights and decorations and presents. It’s important that we stay focused on the truth of what we celebrate.
“God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son. Anyone who believes in Him will not die but will have eternal life.” John 3:16
Jesus is the best gift God ever gave us. God sent Jesus – the Savior of the world to rescue us from our sin! When we put our faith and trust in Jesus, we can have a relationship with God now and forever.
Join us Christmas Eve as we remember the Christmas story and praise God for the greatest gift the world has ever known – Jesus. We will gather @ 4:00 pm in the Barclay for our Family Christmas Eve Candle Lighting Worship Service. After the service, families are invited to enjoy the hot chocolate bar and Christmas cookies.
Family Advent Box
The Advent Box provides a fun and simple way for families to grow together spiritually this Christmas season. Advent is a time of expectation and hope for the birth of Jesus but also when He comes again.
Inside each box are items to create a nativity and devotional cards for kidz to learn through the Scriptures and discussions as a family.
Family Advent Boxes are available Sunday, November 28, at both services.
