December Newsletter

There’s nothing better than singing our favorite Christmas carols either at church or at home. Not only do they help us prepare for Christmas and celebrate our Lord’s birth and coming into this world, but like all the hymns, they also bring such great theological truth about God and the salvation that Jesus has won for us. This Advent and Christmas season join us as we learn more about these hymns and carols as we begin our Advent and Christmas theme, “Songs of Salvation.” Each week during our Midweek Wednesday services, we’ll explore a different Advent and Christmas favorite and how it relates to Christ’s birth and the salvation he came to bring to all people.

We will explore five beloved Advent and Christmas hymns beginning on December 3 at our first Advent Midweek. I’m sure you can guess what hymn we will explore on Christmas Eve and we’ll look at another well known and loved Christmas carol on Christmas Day as well. These hymns hold such great theological truths and share with us the Good News about Jesus and not only His birth, but also His atoning death and resurrection that saves us now and for eternity. For our Lord came to this earth to die. He came to die and take upon Himself our wretchedness so that we can live with Him forever. Be sure to join us for our Christmas Hymn Sing on the third Advent Midweek on December 17. Singing these beloved Christmas hymns is a major part of what makes this time of year so special. Hope you can join us! Happy Advent! “Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Let earth receive her king; Let every heart prepare Him room and Heaven and nature sing and Heaven and nature sing, And heaven and heaven and nature sing.”

God’s peace to you through Christ!
