Our Advent theme this year is "Love's Pure Light," from the beloved Christmas hymn, "Silent Night." Pick up a copy of our simple weekly devotional in the LCR gathering space, along with a battery votive candle, to help you reflect during the Advent Season.
We also invite you to share in-kind offerings to help local people in need. Each week, we have provided suggestions for simple, meaningful gifts to be brought to the manger in the Gathering Space.
