START OR BEGIN A TRADITION  – COME LET US ADORE HIM, THE LORD JESUS
Come as you are for our Christmas Eve Candlelight Service from  5-6:00 PM on December 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. At last enveloped in the glow, we remember when The Light who came into the world pierced the darkness.

INVITE YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY, COWORKERS, AND NEIGHBORS
Invite someone with the postcards available in the lobby or download an invitation to send here.

Bring your friends, family, and neighbors to enjoy a special program of music and readings of the Christmas season. Preschoolers sing, elementary kids sing, we sing! We’ll close with our traditional “birthday pop-up” version of 12 Days of Christmas. Then we’ll go to the Family Room for snacks and goodies!

Please bring either:
• two dozen of your favorite cookies,
• a sandwich tray or
• veggie or fruit or mixed platter
for the reception immediately following the service.

Advent is just around the corner… the season when we gather to worship our King in song, scripture, and joyful anticipation. Come lend a hand and help us prepare for this beautiful season! Let’s make our spaces glow with beauty, love, and laughter… together.

All ages welcome after the 10AM service on November 23rd! We’ll do the family thing and pull decorations from the attic and closets and make Hope’s Sanctuary and Family Room festive together.

Sign up on Realm (you get lunch that way).
