Advent & Christmas Eve Worship Services
This year, Advent will begin Sunday, December 3. Each Sunday throughout Advent, we will continue with our 9am & 10am worship services, with the 10am also being livestreamed on our YouTube page.
Join us for the special “Advent Vespers Service of Prayer and Song” on Wednesday, December 13 at 7:30pm in Potter Chapel. Amid the busyness of the holiday season, take some time in the evening of December 13 to gather with us for a worship service of light, song, silence, and prayer. This brief, simple vespers service, based on ancient monastic practices, will serve as a time to center ourselves in prayer as we prepare of the arrival of Christ. Expect spoken communal liturgies, hymns, music by the bell and chancel choirs, scripture reading, and times of silence.
Christmas Eve is on Sunday, December 24, which means we will have our regular morning services in addition to our three Christmas Eve services:
9am in Potter Chapel – Fourth Sunday of Advent Worship
10am in the Sanctuary & Livestream – Fourth Sunday of Advent Worship*
4pm in the Sanctuary – Family Christmas Eve Worship
8pm in the Sanctuary – Lessons and Carols Worship*
10pm in the Sanctuary – Candlelight and Communion Worship
*Denotes service will be livestreamed. To join us through a livestream service, please visit www.worthingtonumc.com/worship
Join us for any and all of the services that speak to you! And remember, this time of year is the perfect time to invite a friend to church.
