The splendor of the holiest of nights
Candlelight Christmas Eve
Celebrate Christmas with glorious music and sacred candlelight
December 24 | 5 pm, 7:30 pm, 10 pm
Our candlelight Christmas Eve services bring the beauty and majesty of the season with the church decked in candles, flowers, and holiday greenery. This traditional service features familiar Christmas readings and carols along with joyous choral anthems and sermon. Following communion, the congregation passes the light of Christ with candles and sings ‘Silent Night’ in the darkened church.
Nursery and childcare are available for the 5 & 7:30 pm services. Incense will be used at the 10 pm service. Each service is preceded by 15 minutes of Christmas music by organ and brass, and the 5 pm service is live-streamed.
After the Service
We invite you to stay after the 5 and 7:30 pm services to enjoy festive beverages and Christmas cookies with your church family and don’t forget to drop into Sumners Hall to see the lovely Christmas Village.
