Jesus did not come with regal fanfare when He was born in Bethlehem; rather, he came in the quiet of night to anxious parents in a humble setting.  He came as our Humble King with an attitude to seek and save people like you and like me.  Our choir accompanied by full orchestra, will be singing familiar carols and original pieces to celebrate the Christmas season.  We will also have spoken word segments to help us reflect on Jesus’ purpose for coming through poetry. Get your free event tickets today and make plans to stick around afterwards for a cookie reception. We expect both nights to fill up, so please reserve your free general admission tickets to hold a seat. Seats will be released to the general public at 6:45pm each night.  Child care is not provided for this event.
