Christmas Eve Family Candlelight Service

Our Christmas Eve Worship Service will be held on Monday, December 24th at 6:00 pm.

The Worship will feature heartfelt Lessons & Carols (scripture readings with delightful congregational singing), remarkable musical offerings, and the addition of a special Children’s Time during the service.

An early worship time and the use of glow-sticks for the children while the adults use candles during the final hymn – “Silent Night” – are only two of the features that make this Christmas Eve Worship a service the whole family can attend and enjoy while celebrating the eve of our Lord & Savior’s birth.

Come and praise God with us for the birth of His son Jesus Christ!
