We begin our Advent and Christmas series, Journey to the Nativity. Advent is a 4 week season of watchfulness, repentance, and hope—an intentional time to slow down and prepare our hearts before the joy of Christmas arrives. Journey to the Nativity invites us to walk that road with God’s people of old, discovering again how every waiting, every step, and every promise leads us to Jesus. May this new church year deepen our faith and unite us in His saving love.
