"Do Not Be Afraid!"
The inspiration for this year's Advent theme comes from the angels’ message in the first two chapters of the Gospel of Luke: “Do not be afraid!” This phrase is an instruction God gave to God’s people throughout their history, and it’s a message God continues to give to us today. This Advent, we invite you to explore what it looks like to hold hope when life feels really uncertain, to bring peace in the face of fear, to practice joy when everything seems burdensome, and to choose love, when sometimes, it’s just really hard. The season begins on December 1. Join us on Sundays at 9:00 a.m. Join us on Wednesdays for Soup Supper at 5:30 p.m. and for Worship at 6:30 p.m. We use the Holden Evening Vespers service for our Advent Midweek Worship. |
