You’re Invited – Christmas Eve Candlelight Service

Join us on Tuesday, December 24, 2024, at 4:00 PM for a beautiful and sacred Christmas Eve service. Led by Rev. Nancy Bacon and Rev. Jenell Mahoney, this special worship time invites us to pause and reflect on the wonder of Christ’s birth.

Together, we’ll light the white center candle—the Candle of Christ—symbolizing the arrival of Jesus, the Light of the World. Through meditation and song, we’ll prepare our hearts to welcome the peace, joy, love, and hope that Christmas brings.

As the service draws to a close, we will each hold a candle, filling the sanctuary with light as we sing “Silent Night, Holy Night.” This cherished tradition reminds us of the holy stillness of that first Christmas night and the unending love of God.

Come and be part of this heartfelt celebration. Bring your family, your friends, and your faith or curiosity. Let’s rejoice together in the miracle of Christmas!
