Sunday, December 24
We would be honored to welcome you to any of our services on Christmas Eve.
10:00 a.m. – On this, the last Sunday of Advent, we light the fourth candle. Katie Fortney will sing “Some Children See Him” and “Rise Up, Shepherd, and Follow.” Pastor Dan Fahs will bring the message. This service takes place in our upstairs sanctuary. An elevator is available.
4:00 p.m. – We have a children and family worship focus. There will be carols sung and a retelling of the Christmas story that speaks to children of all ages. We will feature our drummers and lift up the spirit of the season! This service takes place in our upstairs sanctuary. An elevator is available.
7:00 p.m. – This will be a more traditional worship service with carols, a wonderful anthem from our choir, and a message from Pastor Dan. We will also light candles in our congregation as we sing about Christ’s birth. This service takes place in our upstairs sanctuary. An elevator is available.
11:00 p.m. – A combination of Bible lessons and carols. We will hear the Christmas story and sing traditional Christmas songs and celebrate communion. As United Methodist pastors sometimes say in our Invitation to the Table, “Christ our Lord invites to his table all who love him, who earnestly repent of their sin, and seek to be at peace with one another.” If you can say you do or have done these three things, you are welcome to receive. The service will culminate with the singing of “Silent Night,” lit by candles. This is a truly moving time of worship that will inspire us as Christmas Day approaches. This service will be held in the chapel on the main floor.
