NEW SERMON SERIES
Advent is the Church’s season of waiting, watching, preparation, and readiness. Advent helps us prepare our hearts, homes, and spirits – opening a broad path and a clear response to the joyous heart of our faith: the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ, at Christmas. Let us join together this season, as we engage the holy call of being ready – ready to love our neighbors, share from our table, and welcome strangers while ever watching for God in our midst.
