Advent & Christmas Season 2021
|
We look forward to sharing a meaningful Advent and Christmas with you! Our theme this year, “My Heart Shall Sing” invites us into this season of preparation by considering the songs that our hearts long to sing, need to sing, wish they could sing…the songs of lament and confusion, and the songs of joy and hope. Christmas Eve we will offer two similar services, one early evening and one later in the evening. November 28, Advent 1 My heart shall sing of justice December 5, Advent 2 My heart shall sing of preparation December 12, Advent 3 My heart shall sing with expectation & questions December 19, Advent 4 My heart shall sing with joy December 24, Christmas Eve My heart shall sing Good News |
With Hope and Love,
Pastors Carla & Linda
