Christmas Eve Service

We invite you to our Candlelight Christmas Eve Service on December 24th from 6:00 to 7:00 PM. Join us as we celebrate the birth of Christ with worship, a message, and a candle lighting. There is no childcare but this is a family-friendly service, so we encourage you to bring the whole family to worship together. We can’t wait to come together and celebrate our Savior.
Remember the Poor
Through December 15th
​
The church has done well over the years at giving this body of believers an outlet to get their hearts and minds onto what the holidays are really about. This year, we will continue to call the church's attention to those who are struggling in our community, through the giving opportunity launched last year, “Remember the Poor.” The hope is that we can make a significant impact in the lives of hurting people in our community and it will not be overwhelming for any one of us.
If you took a donation jar, please bring it back on the 15th, and set it on the Remember the Poor table in the sanctuary. If you didn't take a jar but would still like to be a part you can give online by clicking here or use a one time giving envelope from the Remember the Poor table. 100% of the proceeds will be going to Be Able, a local faith-based organization that helps those in need in our community. You can learn more on their website at beablecommunity.com.
The idea is that this Thanksgiving and Christmas, we as a church “Remember the Poor” in our community, and as we are praying for them we put action to those prayers and thoughts through giving to Be Able. Thank you for being a part.
