Sunday, December 18 The Fourth Sunday of Advent The last Sunday we gather before Christmas. Let's take some time as we all hustle and bustle to prepare for this wonderful season! come breathe, glow and be part of the story of God's overwhelming love!
Lessons & Carols All the Advent lessons point to the coming arrival of Jesus. Even Mary gets a chance to speak and unbelievably says "Count Me In." Christmas anthems include: There Shall a Star Come Out of Jacob, Before the Marvel of this Night, Biebl’s Ave Maria, Angel’s Carol and This Christmastide. With our wonderful accompanist Cherry Tinquist at the piano and a string orchestra to lift our spirits. Don’t miss the 4th Sunday in Advent service. All the characters except the one in the cradle are in place. Won’t you come and hear the news of what God is up to and say, "Count Us In." Coffee, Cider & Treats |
"Light of the World" Children’s Christmas Pageant, at 10:00am This year we present the musical Light of the World by Mark Patterson. Using familiar carols from around the world and new original songs we tell the Christmas story. Through narration, drama, and song, choristers share how Jesus came to be the "Light of the World" over 2,000 years ago. We will let the children lead us as we witness a live nativity and then take the light out into the world!
Nativity Display Between Services Come see The Nativity sets! They will be set up in or near the Christian Life Center. Let all these depictions of that holy night fill your heart with its awe and beauty. Music will fill the space to enhance your wonder. There will be several Fontanini sets, some children friendly, hands on sets, an old fashion cardboard set from days of yore (no three dimension stuff in those tough times), and hopefully many more!
