You’re Invited – Sunday Worship and Christmas Pageant on December 15, 2024

This Third Sunday of Advent, we’re lighting the candle of JOY and celebrating the season with a heartwarming Christmas Pageant, “The Friendly Beasts.” Written by Fr. John Shimchick and lovingly revised by Rev. Nancy Bacon, this special service brings the nativity story to life through the eyes of the animals who witnessed the miracle of Christ’s birth.

With children and adults from our congregation taking part, this intergenerational pageant is a joyful expression of community, creativity, and the true meaning of Christmas. Through storytelling, song, and spirit, we’ll be reminded of the beauty of God’s creation and the joy that comes with sharing love and kindness.

Service begins at 10:00 AM in our sanctuary. Bring your family, your friends, and your sense of wonder—this is a celebration you won’t want to miss! Together, let’s rejoice in the season of Advent and the JOY that comes with Christ’s coming.
