The True Celebration of Light
Wednesday, December 9th, 2009
Jesus’ birth marks one of the most significant points in all history. 2000 years ago, the world was a place where people were caught in darkness. Israel was longing for an earthly king to rescue them from Herod and the empire’s oppression. They knew the prophecies found in the Old Testament which were passed down over the generations. Herod and the other forces of darkness knew of the prophecies as well. He longed to snuff out the Light by killing Jesus before his 2nd birthday. He couldn’t risk being dethroned and losing his power. Regardless of their motives in seeking the Light, many missed the arrival of Jesus Christ all together.
During Jesus’ ministry, He said some fascinating truths and gave us great insight into who He is and why He came to earth. If we miss these truths, we will be caught in darkness forever – without hope and without peace. We want to invite YOU and those you love to experience a wonderful Christmas Eve service. We will explore the realities and consequences of darkness. We will also celebrate the Light of salvation born so that we may have life!
Service times are 5:00 and 7:00 in the evening. Starting at 4:30 and after the each service, cookies and beverages will be served. Everyone is welcome! Childcare will be provided during both services for babies and young children up to three years old. What a truly great way to conclude a busy Christmas season by remembering, or maybe believing for the first time, that Jesus is the Light of the world.
