Christmas with the Dashboard Saints

Join the Dashboard Saints for some Christmas music and more at their annual Christmas Concert and Party on Saturday, December 10th at 7:00 pm.. Bring a dessert or appetizer to share. This is always a very festive night!

Sunday Worship

Join us this Sunday, December 3, at 9:30 for worship. We’re continuing our advent series, the “Advent Conspiracy,” where we’ll experience Advent a bit differently this year.

The Advent Conspiracy

Our Advent worship theme will focus on The Advent Conspiracy – how we can celebrate Christmas a bit differently this year, by worshipping fully, spending less, giving more and loving all. We’ll also have advent devotionals, mid-week meals, and other “Christmasy experiences”.

Visit With Santa – 12/3/2022 (11:00 to 1:00)

Our annual Visit with Santa is back! We’ll have Santa ready to sit with the kids for pictures, as well as games, crafts snacks, and our free little library. This will be fun for everyone, so tell your friends and neighbors. And please also consider helping out. We need lots of volunteers for this event!

Angel Tree is Fully Loaded

Our annual Advent tradition of buying Christmas gifts for kids is back. Like the last two years, you can select names online or you can grab names off the tree in the Welcome Room at Cross of Glory.

God calls us to be stewards here on earth, to take care of the air, water, flora and fauna.

Cross of Glory has started a climate action team to help identify and implement changes we can make in our church, homes, and community. Join us as we continue to be God’s stewards here on earth. For additional information, go to the team’s web page (www.crossofglory.com/cat).
