    Start or Begin a Tradition – Come Let Us Adore Him

    Come as you are for our Christmas Eve Candlelight Service at 5:00 PM on Tuesday, the 24th: dressed for photos or bring your kids in pajamas. Bring your family and friends to sing the carols and hear the story once again of when Hope came as a human and lived among us.

    Then stand in the darkness as the first candle is lit and see it slowly spread across the room, candle to candle. Until at last, enveloped in the glow, we remember when The Light came into the world and pierced the darkness.

    Invite friends and family with the postcards available in the lobby.

    If you are unable to attend, please join us for the livestream.
