Advent

 

Mid-Week Advent Worship 

On Wednesdays December 4th, 11th and 18th we will be gathering at 7:00 pm for our Advent Mid-Week Worship using the Holden Evening Prayer service.  This is a beautiful time of calm and prayer, a perfect balance of Advent in a hectic time.  Give it to yourself as a gift of self-care this month.  Dinner will be available beginning at 6:00 pm if you don't have a chance to eat before.  A free will offering basket will be available to offset the cost of the dinner. 

 

Christmas Eve - Sunday, Dec. 24th 

4:00 pm - Early Christmas Eve service will be outside, weather permitting.  Bring a chair and a blanket if you'd like, and dress appropriately.  The service will be a bit shorter than usual but we will have communion.  We can use volunteers to welcome people.

 

7:00 pm  - Traditional Christmas Eve Candlelight service will be Indoors.  Please reach out to Pastor soon if you would like to share your musical gifts during the service.

 

10:00 am  Taizé service and breakfast.  A Taizé worship service involves sung and chanted prayers, meditation, a period of silence, liturgical readings, and icons.

 

Give those around you the gift of an invitation to worship with you.  You never know if that is just what they need for this Advent and Christmas season.
