Message: “Celebrate Love” from Matthew Dyer

This Christmas season we want to capture the wonder, hope and joy of the miracle of the incarnation. The birth of Christ is great news for humanity! The presence of God in the world is a gift that brings light into darkness and life from death. Christmas is a time where we can celebrate these things with joy and fervor. It’s also a time where we acknowledge our pain and loss and where we look after and comfort one another. It’s a time where we seek peace and look to the hope of new life.

Message: “Hope in Loss and Grief” from Melanie Griffin

During November we will be focusing on the theme of Hope in a series called “Stories of Hope” in which a number of people in our church community will be sharing stories about their own experiences. In the Kingdom of God there is always hope; not a naïve “wishful thinking” that every cloud has a silver lining; but a resolute refusal to give up, a commitment to stand for what is good, and tireless pursuit of love and beauty. We’ll explore hope as a way of life and see Jesus as one who calls us to hope even in the most impossible circumstances.
