WE ARE THE CHURCH

(THE WONDER OF CHRISTMAS; GOD WITH US) - December 15,2024)

Series Big Idea: "Exploring the heart and purpose for the Church

Series Big Idea: “Jesus was born to bring salvation to the world”




Key Scripture (Matthew 1:23)

We are glad you are here. The theme of our worship serviced today is “God with us.” It is based on Matthew 1:23.

We have designed our time together today to include several well known and traditional Christmas hymns and songs along with Scripture readings to enhance the worship though music. It is structured in a way to balance between being reflective and celebratory. This service is designed to be inclusive and engaging for all ages.

Conclusion:

Our prayer is that you go away from here today with an attitude of praise and thanksgiving for what God has done for us through His Son Jesus. May God richly bless each and every one!
