The Advent and Christmas Season provides many opportunities to gather for contemplation, celebration and action as we live out our call to be beacons of God’s love, justice and compassion in the world. During Advent we light candles of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love—and then on Christmas we celebrate once again the great gift of a God who loved us enough to become one of us to show us how to love one another. Join us for one or all of these services during this holy and live giving season.
