Dear ,

Merry Christmas Eve! Today's video invitation comes from Pastor Chuck Hunt as we continue to make every effort to let you know what is happening today at 4 pm and 8 pm in our Worship Center.

We also wanted to share some final details below about our Christmas Day Service, and our two all-church Sunday All-Church Family Services on December 26 and January 2, 2022.

In addition, we want to make you aware that our campus will be closed between Christmas and New Year to give the staff a Christmas gift of some time off. See these details and more below Pastor Chuck's video.

  • Invite your friends, family, and neighbors
  • Park at Gateway Plaza to make room for our guests that evening. Please don't park on the side streets in order for our neighbors to have room for their guests.
  • Wear a mask while indoors to show respect and care for those around us
