Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

A different way to observe Christmas

Join us at Christ the King on Thursday, December 20th at 7 p.m.  as we gather together for a worship service that is a different way to observe Christmas.

The service is called "A Blue Christmas." It is a Christmas service designed for people who have a hard time putting on a happy face because of loss of a job, end of a marriage, death of a loved one, or poor health.

The service is filled with prayers, laments, reflective readings from the Bible, and quiet carols of Christmas. It also contains a message of hope, the Good News of God in Jesus Christ that can break through our blues and remind us of God's love.

For more information, contact Pastor Grant at the church office Tuesdays and Thursdays.
