Christmas Eve Services

point_line

Times and Descriptions

Celebrate the birth of Jesus at 1:00, 5:00, or 7:00pm!

Whether you’re looking for a family-centered gathering or a traditional Lutheran liturgy, there’s a place for everyone here. Each service includes candlelight, Silent Night, and Holy Communion, which is offered to all.

1:00 pM WORSHIP

Step into the story of Christmas with a service made for families! As the Christmas Gospel is told, kids are invited to participate in a "pop-up pageant,"  choosing costumes and quietly acting out the characters. Familiar Christmas hymns take on a new feel with Thom McNeil and his bluegrass band. Holy Communion is open to all, and we end in the glow of candlelight as music and voices join together to sing Silent Night.

Join us at 2 PM for a live nativity petting zoo at our Christmas Festival.

5:00 pm + 7:00 pm WORSHIP

Celebrate the wonder of Christmas with services steeped in our traditional Lutheran liturgy and beloved Christmas traditions. At both services, our choir, bells, brass, and harp lift up familiar carols and hymns in joyful praise. Come hear the story of Christ’s birth, reflect on God’s love for the world, share Holy Communion, and close together in candlelight as we sing Silent Night.

The 7pm service will also be shown on livestream.

Our Christmas Offering

At Christmas, we lift up our ministry partnership with Upbring, specifically the BeReal and New Life ministries that seek to break the cycle of abuse and nurture children and teens as they grow.  Your financial gifts contribute to our congregation's commitment to this vital ministry in Central Texas.

Through your generosity, we become Christ’s love in action for others.
