  A Gift Worth Celebrating: The Incarnation Have you ever wanted your pet to be able to talk to you? I know I have! It would make things so much simpler to communicate with them and find out what they are thinking, feeling, and where they may be hurting. Of course, you can learn a lot about your pet through training and time, but it's not the same as having a real conversation with another human being. The birth of Jesus Christ in December is a celebration of our relationship with God. We are His creation, and He created us to be in relationship with Him. However, in our current state on this Earth, with our human flesh, we cannot be in His direct presence. This is evident throughout scripture, where people have had to see God through priests, burning bushes, historical acts, and miracles. God’s word tells us that if we were to look upon Him as we are today, we would surely die. This is why we needed Jesus. John 1:14 (NLT) So the Word became human (flesh) and made His home among us

  One of our favorite traditions is gathering as a church family for an informal Thanksgiving meal. It is a time for everyone to bring their favorite soup, sandwiches, and desserts to share. It is a great time of fellowship as we express our gratitude to God and to each other. We have this on Tuesday because the office is closed on Wednesday and there are no Wednesday night activities due to Thanksgiving.

  Embark on a heartwarming interactive Christmas Celebration on December 3rd at 10:30 AM.
