Advent Series Begins

Sunday, Nov 30 | All services

The holidays often feel like a marathon, and in the busyness, it’s easy to neglect what really matters: reflecting on the glory of Jesus. Join us Sundays in December to slow down, connect with God, and rediscover peace this Advent season. Together we'll prepare our hearts for Jesus’ arrival amid the noise of the season.
