2023 Advent & Christmas at Memorial

Advent: God in the Dark

The Scriptures are filled with themes of darkness and light, and Advent is a season to reflect on both. Understanding the nature and impact of darkness is important to truly appreciate the marvel of how God works in the darkness to bring us His light and the hope, peace, joy, and love that comes with it.

We observe Lent each Sunday during our regular worship services at 9 am CST. We do not hold Wednesday evening Advent services.

Children’s Christmas Program

On December 10th during our 9 am Worship Service, the children will present a “live” nativity.

Christmas Service Times

Invite your friends and family and join us on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day as we come together to celebrate the birth of Christ through beautiful worship, heartfelt teaching, and traditional carols. This year, Christmas Eve is on a Sunday! We will have our regular worship service at 9 am, and then our traditional Christmas Eve candlelight services in the evening.

Each of these services will be live-streamed.
