Christmas 2016

Welcome!

Do you remember that TV special about Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer? Rudolph figures out that he’s a misfit, and he decides to be independant. We all have times when we feel like we would be better if we were all alone. We even walk away from God. But God doesn’t leave us alone in the cold.

Tonight we celebrate that God loved the world so much that He gave us His Son, the first and greatest Christmas gift--Jesus Christ, Immanuel, God With Us, the Light of the World.

Jesus is God’s gift to the misfits.

We have all lived in a way that separates us from God and from each other. Through Jesus we find forgiveness from our past; we find direction for the present; and we find hope for the future.

I’m glad you found your way here tonight. You belong here. Together we’re admitting that we are all misfits who need a Savior. This Christmas Eve we worship the King who was humbly born as a misfit in order to bring us safely home to Him.

As you celebrate God’s ultimate Gift tonight, may you also experience His presence.

Pastor Aaron Winowiski
