Close to Home
When something hits close to home, it profoundly affects us. During Advent and Christmas, we explore scriptures that reflect our longing for God to draw near. The "Close to Home" theme captures the tension of our faith—Emmanuel is with us, yet God's promised day is not fully realized. May we find comfort in God's presence, create a sanctuary for those far from home, and embrace joy, hope, and courage this season.
December 24 – Invited Home (Christmas Eve Service)
Scripture: Luke 2:1-20
Mary and Joseph are displaced when they find no room in the inn, but a humble space is made for Jesus’ birth. Born without an invitation, Jesus welcomes the outcasts, reminding us that Christmas calls us to find home despite barriers.
