THE LONGEST NIGHT WORSHIP SERVICE
Wednesday, December 21 | 6:30p | Windsor Campus, Nave
Advent and Christmas are often marked by expressions of joy, excitement and happiness, pointing to the hope that is found in the coming of the Christ child. This time of joy and expectation can sometimes overshadow grief and hurt that many also experience during this season, when the world’s merriment puts the sorrow we may be experiencing in stark relief. Please join us for a Service of the Longest Night where we will recognize our suffering and loss and acknowledge that our savior remains.

RISE AGAINST HUNGER:
