Dear Friends,
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I keep hearing that song lyric running through my head. And I think it is true. There is something special about the Christmas season. For us as a church, it is a wonderful time because it is our opportunity to celebrate the coming of our savior Jesus Christ. This Sunday we will begin a new series where we will explore and unwrap the true meaning of Christmas. This is also a great season to invite a friend to join us for worship.
Christmas Eve falls on a Sunday this year. We will have our full morning schedule and 4 evening services. 4 p.m. in Sandown, Plaistow and Amesbury and 6 p.m. in Plaistow.
I want to take a quick moment to remind you of some important upcoming opportunities. Tomorrow (Saturday) will be the Christmas Parade in Amesbury. Our church will feature a men’s choir sharing the true meaning of Christmas on a float in the Christmas parade. The parade begins at 3:30 p.m. I invite you to join in the fun.
This week we have several opportunities coming up. Sunday evening at 6:00 p.m. will be our Church and Community Christmas Carol sing. This is a great fun evening held at our Sandown campus. Bring a dessert to share and join us. On Monday will be our last first Monday of the year. Tuesday and Wednesday we will have Mark 209 in concert at Plaistow (Tuesday) and Sandown (Wednesday).
I look forward to having us all together this Sunday as we officially begin the Advent season. We are launching a great new series that I know you will not want to miss.
God Bless,
Pastor Steve
