DESCRIPTION:Christmas Eve has a sound to it. A room that goes quiet. A cand
 le passed hand to hand. “Silent Night” sung by people who know every w
 ord.\nJoin us for Candlelight Christmas Eve worship on Thursday\, December
  24 in the sanctuary. We offer two services\, 7:00 PM and 11:00 PM\, so fa
 milies can choose the one that fits the evening. Both run about an hour an
 d include carols\, the nativity story from Luke\, and a brief message. Eac
 h service ends with the candlelighting and “Silent Night.”\nChristmas 
 Eve also closes our Advent series\, For Such a Time as This\, which has fo
 llowed the unlikely people God called: a prophet\, a queen\, a servant\, a
  father. The last message\, The Most Unlikely King of All\, lands where th
 e whole story has been heading\, at a manger.\nThe offering that night goe
 s out the door to McPherson neighbors. Read how the Candlelight Christmas 
 Eve Offering works. You are also welcome earlier in the day for Pray over 
 the Pews\, an open prayer time in the sanctuary from 10:00 AM to noon.\nAl
 l are welcome. Whether you are here every Sunday or have not been inside a
  church in years\, come as you are. Arrive a few minutes early if you want
  to sit together\, and park free in either lot.
