Advent Videos

Each Sunday in December, we will have special devotional videos for kids and families posted to the KidsConnect page. These short videos will give your children a chance to learn about the story of Christmas in a fun, new way.  You can access these videos on Sunday mornings or any time that works for your family throughout the week.

Advent Devotionals and Family Resources

Our Advent-To-Go bags contain a set of family devotionals as well as the objects to complete the devotions. If you were not here on November 21st to pick up your Advent-To-Go bag in person, they will be delivered the first week of December.  If you would like to start using the devotional before then you can find the PDF here: Advent Devotional.

You can also find a list of additional suggested Advent and Christmas resources for families here.

Christmas Eve Service

Our 4:00 Christmas Eve service will be a special family focused service.  We are inviting all kids preschool-5th grade to help lead our worship service through special songs and the reading of the Christmas story. Even if you won’t be attending Christmas Eve service in person this year, there is an opportunity for  your children to be involved in retelling the Christmas story. We are putting together a video of our children retelling the Christmas story in their own words.  Children who attend our Midweek or Sunday School program will be recorded during that time in the month of December.  If your family has not returned to in-person programming yet, we would still love for your child to be involved.  We simply need a video recording of them retelling the Christmas story.  For more information about how to record and send your video please email Rachel Lunning.
