OUR CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICES
5PM & 7PM
HERE'S HOW YOU CAN JOIN US:
OPTION #1: Live services inside the sanctuary
OPTION #2: Watch live on LED screen in parking lot
OPTION #3: Watch live online right here
Q: What is there for my kids on Christmas Eve?
A: We're planning on having Christmas Eve services suitable for congregants of all ages, therefore there will not be nursery care or child programs during the Christmas Eve service! Instead, the kids are invited and encouraged to join us in the sanctuary as we celebrate the birth of Christ as a church family!
Q: How long are the Christmas Eve services?
A: Our goal is to wrap up our service in about 60-70 minutes just in time for you to get home to put out some milk and cookies!
Q: How do the drive-in services work?
A: For our drive-in services, you have two options! First (for those who want to keep an eye on the sky for Santa) you can pull up a lawn-chair and simply enjoy the service in the open air. Or, if you'd rather stay in your car, that is an option too! Simply park your car in our designated parking spots and tune your car radio to 104.1 FM. With our outdoor screen and radio tuner, you should be able to hear and see the service from the comfort of your car!
