“Isaiah ‘Twas Foretold It”
For this year’s Advent theme we will be visiting the Messianic prophesies of Isaiah, especially in chapters 7, 9, and 11 – how, 700 years before Christ was born into the world, Isaiah saw with prophetic vision and in vivid detail, the life and purpose of the Messiah.
Then, when Christmas is here, celebrate Christ’s Mass with us at Faith’s Christmas Services. In three different services – not in style, but in theme – hear from each of the three accounts of our Savior’s Incarnation in Scripture. We warmly welcome you to come to any, and we encourage you to come to all.
We know you will be richly blessed. Come and see your Savior!
Christmas Eve Vigil | 6:30pm – Dec. 24
At the vigil of Christmas, it’s still Advent (the color remains blue), but the service begins to sound a lot like Christmas. The Gloria in Excelsis is not sung yet, but returns in all its angelic glory in the first mass of Christmas, commonly known as the “Midnight Mass” later this evening.
Midnight Mass (by Candlelight) | 11:00pm – Dec. 24
This service is entirely candle-lit and includes the Lord’s Supper, or Christ’s Mass, as well as many familiar Christmas hymns.
New first-time visitors to Faith will receive a choice of a free book (~$15 value), as our Christmas gift to you. Some books include”The Christmas Promise,” “Messiah: the Greatest Sermon Ever Sung,” “St. Nicholas: The Real Story of the Christmas Legend,” “The Night before Jesus,” and “What Child Is This?
After the service, we will be serving Hot Cocoa and Marshmallows (even roasted over little open fires!).
Christ’s Mass Divine Service | 9:00am – Dec. 25
Don’t forget the Mass in Christmas! Christ is born for us today in His Word and Sacraments. This joyous service tends to be lightly attended but with a hearty emphasis on the Word made Flesh.
