Welcome! Thank you for joining us for worship today. In our services we gather before our almighty God to receive his gifts and to offer him our worship and praise. Through God’s powerful Word and sacraments he renews our faith and strengthens us to serve in joy.

This season brings a wealth of special music written to celebrate the Advent and Christmas story—carols and hymns that proclaim the birth of Jesus, our Savior. During this evening’s service, we will reflect on the verses of the very first Christmas as told in the Gospel of Luke. For centuries, believers have sung these sacred words, inspired by the songs of saints and angels recorded in Scripture. These melodies echo the message of God’s gift—His Son, our Redeemer—and the saving work He has done for all. Join us as we listen, sing, and rejoice in the comfort and joy of this timeless message.
