Summer Spiritual Spectacular

Our 2021 theme involves snow and ice. If you have any extra icicle lights that we could borrow or if you prefer to donate them, please contact Miss Coleen. Thank you!

It’s Christmas Eve and today’s devotional includes some words of encouragement from Pastor Dan.

The second video link is a compilation of Christmas songs for an extended time of worship.

As Christmas Day draws nearer we encourage you to take time and worship Jesus.

COVID UPDATES

We have learned of another person testing positive for COVID, that was present at church this past Sunday. Although asymptomatic, their routine test came back positive on Monday. This person was serving in the children’s ministry on Sunday and has notified all individuals with whom they were in close contact at church on Sunday. They are now quarantining at home.

This Sunday, we will be holding in-person services at 8:45 and 10:45 with Livestream at the 10:45 service. We will not be holding children’s classes this Sunday during the 10:45 service.

END OF YEAR GIVING

We ask that any year end gifts to the church be submitted to the office by Sunday, December 27th in order to be recorded on this year’s giving statement.

Take time this day to reflect on the first coming of Jesus Christ and His love for us.

We encourage you to take a moment and reflect on this Christmas worship song.

HARK THE HERALD ANGELS SING

Join Pastor Josh as he gives some of the background to Hark the Herald, and how as we Step into Christmas, it’s important that we join with all creation to sing to our king.

Take time this day to worship Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah, who will reign, forevermore.

Step Into Christmas

Over the next eight days (building up to Christmas), we will be providing you with a Daily Worship Devotional intended to help us take another Step Into Christmas. We will be focusing on scripture, and a Christmas hymn/song that we sing as a congregation.
