  • Advent & Christmas Worship Services

    Old Testament Scripture is full of God’s promises, and many of them have to do with the Messiah, Christ! Both Messiah (Hebrew) and Christ (Greek) mean “the Anointed One.” Jesus is that Anointed One, the only one perfectly holy who can restore our broken relationship with our Father, the Only One who will perfectly fulfill God’s Promise of a Savior for all.
