The Cast of Christmas
Join us at 10:30 AM

During the four weeks of Advent leading up to Christmas, your church and visitors will experience the anticipation of the prophets, the joyful proclamation of the angels, the journey of the shepherds and wise men to honor him—and how all of this fits in with how we prepare and celebrate Christmas now.

Advent is a season that is officially observed in many churches. The four weeks before Christmas are set aside as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of Jesus’ birth. The term advent is a version of the Latin word which means “coming.” But Advent is not just an extension of Christmas; it is a season that links the past, present and future.

Advent offers us the opportunity to share in the ancient longing for the coming of the Messiah, to celebrate His birth, and to be alert for His second coming.
​
This sermon series will encourage you to see the coming of Christ through the eyes of the different characters involved, including themselves.
