Advent at our church

Advent is a chance to pause and breathe before Christmas comes rushing in. It’s a time to slow down, pray, and let the season’s music and quiet moments remind us what really matters.

We’d love for you to join us as we walk this journey together—finding hope, making room for peace, and welcoming the light of Christ with thankful hearts.

On Sunday mornings, we come together to share in themes of hope, peace, joy, and love.  A traditional Book of Common Prayer service is at 9 am and a family oriented service with contemporary music with a Sunday school for children is at 10:30 am.  Advent candles serve as a simple reminder that Christ’s light grows stronger as Christmas draws near.
