Current Conditions:Happy New Year!!!
The church year has begun! As the season of Advent draws to a close we continue to live in expectation and joy, waiting to celebrate the birth of that long expected Guest, Jesus the Christ. It is a season of preparation for his return, and to welcome God into our lives. Advent does not mark the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. Christmas is not about toys, dinners, entertaining, Christmas parties, or financial stress. Advent is about hope, joy, and preparation. Preparation for the celebration of Jesus birth, and preparation for His return in power, glory and judgment. The four weeks of Advent focus on four different comings. The prophetic coming that pointed to Christ's birth, the incarnate coming of Christ in Bethlehem, the sacramental coming of Christ in Word and Sacraments, and the eschatalogical coming of Christ at the end of the world.
At Holy Trinity we celebrate the season of Advent with additional opportunities to worship. In addition to our regular Sunday Worship service at 10 AM, we offer two additional Wednesday Mid-week Advent services at 11:30 in the morning and at 7:30 in the evening. We urge you to take time out from the secular preparations for Christmas to learn about the real gift of the season, God's only, begotten, eteranl Son, Jesus. If you truly believe that Jesus is the reason for the season, then you will find time to give back to Him the praise and glory He so richly deserves.
