• Advent Services - Wednesdays @6pm (Pastor Naumann)

• • • • Advent 2021 During our Advent meditation this year we will be studying the different aspects of the gift of life given to us by the Christchild. He has given us our physical life through His creation and gift of parents. He has given us spiritual life through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit. Finally, He will give (or has given?) the gift of eternal life with Him in Heaven. Please join us the next three Wednesdays at 6pm (December 1, 8, 15) for this important preparation for the coming of our Savior.
