December 24, 2024 – Christmas Eve
Theme for the Night: “Wonders Of His Love!”
Readings: Luke 2:1-20
On this holy night, as we gather together, we ask ourselves: Why are you here tonight? What are you looking for? What are you hoping for this Christmas? And perhaps most importantly, Would you even know it if you found it?
Like the shepherds who were keeping watch over their flocks, we too are looking for something. They were filled with wonder and awe when they found the child in the manger, the Savior of the world. But the true wonder of that night, and of this season, is God’s deep love for us.
“Wonders Of His Love!”: This night is for children, yes. But not just for the little ones in age. This night is for the child of God in each of us. God delights in watching His children, of all ages, fill with anticipation, joy, and wonder. Even when we feel afraid, uncertain, or overwhelmed by the demands of life, God invites us to come with haste and trust that His love for us is more than we ever imagined.
The birth of Jesus is the ultimate gift, the truest wonder of His love. As we listen to the story of the first Christmas, may our hearts be filled with joy, gratitude, and wonder, knowing that God loves us with a love beyond measure.
Special Moments:
As we hear the familiar story of Jesus' birth, we are reminded that God’s love, born that night in a humble manger, is the love that fills us all.
Join us in lighting candles, singing familiar carols, and sharing the joy of Christ's birth with one another.
