10:00AM  In person and livestream  

Longest Night is a worship service held on December 21st, the longest night of the year.  The winter solstice reminds us that the day is short and for many in this happy season, it can be painful.  It acknowledges that, for many people, Christmas is a time of loneliness, sorrow, alienation, and sadness.  This service offers a way for people to claim those feelings and still feel surrounded by the compassionate love of God.

The Longest Night Worship Service will not be livestreamed.  

Join us on Christmas Eve for a traditional candlelight worship as we welcome Jesus into our world and into our hearts.  This holy night celebrates the way God joins us in our humanity and the light of the world blesses us in Jesus.   

Join us for 10am worship on Sunday, Christmas Day, tracing Martin Luther’s famous Christmas carol, “From Heaven Above.”  

Martin Luther based his carol “From Heaven Above” on a refrain used for a sixteenth-century singing game.  In the game, the song sets up a riddle to be solved.  Within the nativity story, who would have proclaimed this text?  The answer to the riddle is embedded in the song as the incarnation of Jesus is shared.   

Our Little Pantry is blessing lives each day because of your support.

As we head into the coldest months of the year we would like to place a few hats and gloves in the pantry for people who stop by.   Any donations you have can be placed in the SOS Shopping Cart in the Narthex. 

The church office will be closed the week after Christmas through January 2 for staff vacations.  If you call during the week, please leave a message and for emergencies, contact Pastor Jake via his cell phone. If you need a church directory, email the church office for a current copy. 

Your 2023 offering envelopes are available for pick up in the Narthex.

Stop by the table in the small hallway off the Narthex and get yours today.

If you give online or by bank draft, you will not have a box.

PLEASE DO NOT BEGIN USING THEM UNTIL 2023!

We are part of one church body organized in three expressions — congregations, synods, and the churchwide organization. Each expression has its particular functions but all three together share a common mission of doing God’s work in the world and proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. Together, they ensure a solid foundation of leadership, active involvement in communities, opportunities for dialogue and diverse perspectives, creative partnerships, and support for members and ministries of the ELCA.
