Welcome to our Christmas Eve / Christmas Day worship service. We’ve gathered to worship the Savior by celebrating His birth and we’re glad you have joined us tonight / today.
Like most kids, I always enjoyed Christmas. But it wasn’t until I became a Christian as a teenager that its deeper meaning became real to me. I pray that this service helps you remember just how much Jesus loves you and how special life is when lived for Him.
If you don’t have a church home where you worship each Sunday, let me invite you to become part of our family of faith. God is doing special things here and we’d love for you to be part of it.
Finally, allow me and my family to wish you and your loved ones a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Tell Me the Story of Jesus
During the sermon, Pastor Steve will share with the congregation five challenges our staff and deacons have agreed we need to address as a family of faith. Because our response to these challenges will have a significant impact on our future, we will spend the next five months seeking God’s guidance as we design our response. However, the starting point is to understand what our challenges actually are.
Join us January 1 and help us start our journey to being “Unhindered”.
