Christmas Eve Candlelight Service
Discover Who God Really Is This Christmas Eve
Is Christmas really about us—or is it the moment when the fullness of God is revealed? In a world filled with questions about who God is, some may say He’s cruel, racist, uncaring and judgmental. But Christmas points to the truth. It’s the season when His true character shines through—God is Love. God is Light. God is With Us. Never Failing. Glorious. Faithful.
Join us this Christmas Eve for a joyful, family-friendly Candlelight Service as we celebrate the wonder of who God truly is.
Wed Dec 24th | Candlelight Services 5 & 7PM | 5555 Clayton Rd.
New Years Prayer & Pancakes
What better way to start the New Year than with pancakes, prayer, and good company? Join us for a cozy morning of food, fellowship, and faith for the whole family.
We’ll enjoy a hearty pancake breakfast together, then take some time to pray in the New Year — giving thanks for all God has done and asking for His guidance in the days ahead.
Bring your family, invite a friend, and come hungry for both pancakes and God’s presence. Let’s start this year with grateful hearts and full plates!
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” – Proverbs 16:3
