Christmas Services 2017

Posted on Dec 21, 2017 in General, Worship |

Christmas Eve

5 PM Children’s Service: We hold an early-evening service for families with young children. Children and youth fill most serving roles including greeters, readers, musicians, and ushers. We also have a special Gospel reading just for children. Come share communion and sing traditional Christmas carols with us to celebrate the birth of Jesus. This is a family-friendly service, no childcare is provided so that our caregivers may worship with their families. However, our nursery room will be open during the service should you need it.

11 PM Midnight Mass: This service includes special music presented by the Holy Family choir, organ music, communion, and candlelight singing of Silent Night. Please note that incense is used at this service. Joy to the World!

Christmas Day

10 AM Service: We gather for a mid-morning service with communion to celebrate the arrival of our newborn King. In recent years our youth have started to wear pajamas to this service, and it has become known as “Jammie Church.” Kids of all ages are invited to wear their cozy pajamas or flannel pants. This is a family-friendly service, no childcare is provided.

Gospel at Hogwarts

Posted on Nov 13, 2017 in Children, Christian Education, Fellowship, General, Youth Group |

The four Houses of Hogwarts, accompanied by their House Prefects and Professors, participated in a search for Gospel passages hidden within Hogwarts. Once the Gospel passages were discovered by each House, House members acted out the passage, in front of all the Houses, in the Great Hall and discussed how that passage was similar to a clip from a Harry Potter movie. House members learned about the compassion and generosity of Jesus and made connections to their own lives. All, from the youngest to the oldest, discovered their call to discipleship is both a covenant with God and an adventure that is never-ending.
