Advent Services: A Journey of Hope

The Advent season at Grace Unity Church marks a period of anticipation and preparation. Each Sunday service during Advent focuses on one of the four themes: Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. These services are designed to inspire reflection and gratitude as we await the celebration of Christmas.

Through thought-provoking sermons and beautiful music, attendees are invited to explore how these themes resonate in their own lives. The lighting of the Advent candles serves as a reminder of the light that guides us through the darkness.

Special Christmas Eve Service

The highlight of our holiday celebrations is the Christmas Eve service. This magical evening brings together families and friends to rejoice in the birth of Christ. The service features a mix of traditional carols, scripture readings, and a compelling message that captures the essence of Christmas.

Candlelight Service: A Night of Reflection

One of the most cherished traditions at Grace Unity Church is our Candlelight Service. Held on Christmas Eve, this serene gathering invites participants to reflect in a peaceful, candlelit setting. The gentle glow of candles creates an atmosphere of tranquility and unity.

During the service, attendees have the opportunity to light their own candles as a symbol of spreading love and light into the world. It’s a moment that deeply connects us to one another and the true meaning of the season.

Community Outreach Initiatives

The holiday season is also a time for giving back. Grace Unity Church is committed to serving our community through various outreach programs. From food drives to volunteering at local shelters, our congregation strives to make a positive impact during this special time of year.

With uplifting music and inspiring messages, we come together to celebrate fresh starts and the endless possibilities that lie ahead. It’s a chance to look forward with hope and gratitude, fortified by our shared faith and community.
