Deacon Tim leads an Adult Forum for three Sundays during Advent, with topics varying from week to week. Join them at 9am between the two services for great conversation and formation.
Week 1: AI and God, led by Bernice McCarthy
Join Fr. Jim in the library for his Advent services, "From Humbug to Halleluja"
Christians aren't immune from the stress and busyness that mark our culture at Christmastime, so "From Humbug to Hallelujah" really says it all. Fr. Jim suggest that the transformation in the life of Ebenezer Scrooge in Charles Dickens's classic tale "A Christmas Carol" can be the real experience of ourselves, families with gratitude to the power of Immanuel . . . "God with us!"

From Humbug to Hallelujah Sermon Series
Discouragement overwhelms us when we focus on our own circumstances. This series will help you focus your people’s attention on the Creator of our circumstances, and point ourselves and others to His good and greater plan for our lives. We will discuss breaking the chains that have been forged at times in our lives to reawakening the pure joy of Christmas, then through understanding the value of our relationship with Christ and with others, to understanding the transforming power of the Christmas miracle, and on to living that miracle all year long as we become AWAKE to change lives from humbug to hallelujah.
