4th Sunday Of advent - Christmas Eve Services
December 24 at 4pm & 7pm

On this special day of Christmas Eve, we will be holding Christmas Eve worship services at 4pm and 7pm. In place of our regular Sunday morning service, a morning message will be available (exclusively) online at 10am.

The community is invited to join us on this Christmas Eve as we retell the story of God’s love unfolding through Christ’s birth—remembering that God’s work also continues to unfold through us. We will hear Scripture readings, sing Christmas songs, listen to a short reflection, and light candles as we sing Silent Night. There will be activity packets available for all kids and anyone who needs one. 

Our 4pm service will be a Contemporary Worship service featuring a live band playing modern takes on our favorite Christmas classics. At this time, childcare in our Nursery will be available for children 5 and under.

Our 7pm service will feature Traditional Worship with carols and hymns led by organ, piano duet, choir, and bells. There will be no childcare at this time, but we welcome all little ones into the life and congregation of our church.

These services will be available both in-person and online. Recordings will be available for later viewing by visiting our Previous Services page.
