Starlight Service // December 23rd

This Saturday night at 5:30pm, through music, stories and the Bible, we will share the true story of Christmas, as we celebrate the birth Jesus.

In the Christmas story we see violence, injustice, abuse of power, homelessness, refugees fleeing oppression, families ripped apart, bottomless grief.  Sound familiar?

It’s been a rough year.  The worst mass shooting in American history.  Racial violence.  Hurricanes.  Maybe there has been darkness and pain in your own personal story.

But into to this darkness came Jesus.  A light to help us find our way.  A light so bright that one day every dark shadow will be illuminated with light.

The story of Christmas isn’t that we can fix things if we try hard enough.  It’s that things are dark … BUT …  there is hope.  A new light has dawned.  Like starlight in the dark, only infinitely brighter

For unto you is born this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.  (Luke 2:11)
