As the 500th anniversary of the Reformation approaches, let Martin Luther’s beloved hymn “From Heaven Above” speak to you in our special Advent worship series. Each service in the four-part series focuses on the divine gifts that come down to us through the birth of Jesus.

Services are at 11:00 AM and 6:30 PM. Join us after the early service for lunch (at Noon) or for dinner, at 5:45 PM, before the evening service.
