Join us for our annual Hanging of the Greens service on November 30th @ 6:30pm in the Sanctuary. We gather to prepare the sanctuary for the Advent and Christmas seasons and our hearts for this season of expectation. Led by our Youth, it’s an evening of beautiful music, scripture, and readings that explain the significance of each decoration as it is placed. At the end of the service, everyone will have a chance to place an ornament on the Sanctuary’s Chrismon Tree!

Our Staff has done a great job supporting our Church this year. Christmas is one of the times we show our appreciation. How do we do this? Each year the SPRC requests donations for Staff Christmas Bonuses. This special offering will be received through Dec. 14 and then shared with our staff later that week. If you’d like to contribute to this special thank you gift, please bring your donation to worship, look for an SPRC member, and drop it in one of the donation boxes they are holding. If you’d like to donate online, please CLICK HERE to access our directed donation page.

We are grateful for the dedication and commitment of our staff all year long. Thanks for your generous support of this offering during this special time of year!

Are you looking forward to Christmas Eve Candlelight Communion? Every year, this experience meets our longing for hope, peace, joy and love. It is such a beautiful culmination of the Advent season. This year, we’ll offer three services. At 3:00pm, we’ll worship in the Family Life Center with a beautiful blend of contemporary music and rooted traditions. At 5:00 and 7:00pm, we’ll worship in the Sanctuary with traditional music and lovely liturgy. We’ll receive Communion at all three services and then light our candles as the lights dim and we sing, “Silent Night!” If you are in town, we hope you’ll join us at one of these services.
