This week, we will gather on Christmas Eve morning at 9:00 a.m. for one service. Zachariah helped us prepare for Advent; Mary showed us what it means to be available to God’s call; and this week the shepherds will remind us to be witnesses of the glorious coming of Christ to our world. Come and […]
This Sunday, the youth of Emanuel will present the Christmas Program at 10:30 a.m. There will be no 8:00 a.m. service. The kids have worked hard to learn their lines and songs.
