Our Christmas Eve Service began at 6:00 pm on Dec. 24th. The candlelight service included
Holy Communion, Christmas Carols, a Christmas Message and the Passing of the Christ Light. Members of the congregation became part of the Christmas Message as
everyone has a role to play in the coming of the Christ Child into our hearts. Young people brought up figures to complete the Manger Scene as part of the service. All people who believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior are welcome to take Communion here. Our Pastor is willing to talk with anyone about Baptism. Come and be part of the true story. Find joy that can not be bought or lost. Know for yourself the baby of Bethlehem, God's only Son, Jesus. The Holy Land of Israel / Palestine is a real place. Violence is taking many lives. Christmas there will again be a difficult & dangerous time in Christ's birth place. Please pray for peace with justice for Bethlehem, Jerusalem and all the Holy Land and its people. The Holy Land is home not only to Jewish & Muslim people, but also to Christian. Small olive wood crosses made in Jerusalem by Palestinian Christians are available at Church at no cost. Ask for a Cross at any service or activity you come to or call the Church at (301) 241-3488. Our celebration of Christmas 2009 included a Live Nativity Scene and Christmas Caroling.
