About the event
Experience “The Gifts of Christmas: Christmas Eve Service”
Everyone in the community is invited to attend our Christmas Eve service based on the themes of Hope, Love, Joy and Peace called “The Gifts of Christmas."
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, or so the old song goes. Yet it doesn’t always feel that way—the hectic holiday schedule, family pressures, and emotional wounds are just a few reasons. But Yardley UMC sees the Christmas season as one that offers a unique opportunity to experience God’s love and grace in the midst of real life. That is the reason for “The Gifts of Christmas” Christmas Eve celebration—to experience what the true gifts of Christmas mean for our lives today.
In a season often marked by frenzied busyness, it is also an opportunity to set aside time to prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ.
This service is designed to help us place our focus on a far greater story than our own—the story of God’s redeeming love for our world.
With cookies and cocoa, Carols, lighting the Advent Wreath, “The Gifts of Christmas,” t is the perfect opportunity for families and friends throughout the community to come together to celebrate this special night.
