I am so glad that you are here. I know that this is not necessarily the way we wanted to spend Christmas Eve Worship, but I know that we will be able to feel connected through the power of the Holy Spirit, and that God will join us in a special way today. I want to thank Jim and Amy Enloe, Jen Messaros, Amy Smith, Ella Messaros, Macy Smith and Harper Snyder for helping with the different elements for this worship.
So, light a candle, welcome God into your presence and let us worship the Light that has come into the world! Worship is about 53 minutes, so you can plan accordingly. There is lots of music and Scripture!
Since we will not be able to pass the light around the Sanctuary during Silent Night, you might want to get a couple of candles to pass the light at your home.
There is a second video, it is the Children's Message. I thought you might want to be able to watch it separately, maybe before bedtime, or even tomorrow morning. It is a book called The Colors of Christmas.
Let us worship:
Here is the Children's Message

Merry Christmas! I am sending lots of virtual hugs, handshakes and high fives!
Blessings-
Pastor Lori
Merry Christmas everyone! This was a beautiful service. Everyone did a wonderful job. The only thing that could have made it better would be to be there in person!!
Merry Christmas to you as well. Glad you enjoyed the worship and music.
Merry Christmas to all! This was a beautiful service from beginning to end, Pastor Lori. Tom and I loved the music provided by Macy, Harper, Jen, Ella, Amy and Jim! May you all have a blessed Christmas day, dear friends. Love to our Church family. Cilla and Tom
