Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
The opening line of this classic Christmas carol captures the awe that surrounded Jesus’ birth. But trying to meet the family’s expectations, attending Christmas parties, and finding the perfect presents can take away the joy of the season. Each year, we yearn to experience the real meaning of Christmas, but instead, we get sucked into the busy expectations. But what if this December could be different? What if, instead of busyness and disappointment, this December could be a season of Christmas Joy?

Join us for a four-week series called Joy to the World, where we will reflect on different people’s experiences of Jesus’ birth and discuss how to experience Joy when we need it most.
