The Agape League - Children's Cantata

High in the mountains above a city near you, earth’s noblest heroes have begun to assemble in the Fortress of Virtue. Known for extravagant displays of the highest virtues, they face a common enemy. Uniting together is their only defense to withstand the enemy’s tricks that cannot be withstood alone. These heroes serve on the frontlines every day, evidence of virtues available to every follower of Christ. On this day, a day like no other, they assemble together — The Agape League.

Join us as the Children's Connection, Chorister and Cherub Choirs present this high-powered Superhero Adventure about the Fruit of the Spirit!

Do You See What I See? - A Family Service

November 13, 2012 - 4:19pm

Advent - our time of waiting and preparing for the birth of Christ - is celebrated by our lighting candles of the Advent wreath during the first four Sundays in December. This year, we look forward to a special service at the 9:30 and 11:00 a.m. Family Services on December 2, "Do You See What I See?" prepared by the Children and Family Ministries and the Chancel Choir. Carols, stories, and gifts for the children will light our way to the true meanings of our journey to the manger.

Everyone is encouraged to bring gifts of food, which the children will proudly deliver to the stable for a People's Resource Center offering.

With music and meditations for all, the whole church family is invited to share in this service as we welcome the Advent season.
