CHRISTMAS AT

               FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

“God has pulled the powerful down from their thrones and lifted up the lowly. God has filled the hungry with good things. . . .” - Luke 1

Scrooge’s story reminds us that redemption is possible for all of us. What would that kind of 180 degree turn look like for you? Just as God’s presence was born anew into this world, we too can be born anew, woken up and redeemed into renewed life, joy, passion, generosity, humility
and love. Join us for worship this Advent and Christmas season, as we explore the transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge, and the power of God to enter our lives and redeem them.
