Advent Outreach Opportunities

Advent is a time to reflect and give thanks to God for His willingness to become human for our sake. In many ways, the world around us moves in the opposite direction - rushing through holiday shopping lists that narrow our focus. This year we'd like to prepare and combat this busyness and materialism by encouraging simplicity and generosity. We'll be celebrating Advent for four Sundays from December 8-29.

On December 8th we have planned to replicate God's generosity by serving others. We have set up four different ways to encourage an outward focus during this holiday season. You can serve in practical ways at FISH - Vancouver's food pantry, purchase Christmas gifts for families in crisis, help cook and serve a meal at a shelter for families, or be a part of a carol sing that shares the gospel at an assisted living facility here in Vancouver.

Christmas Celebration Choir

Join the Christmas Celebration Choir as they sing with the worship team at both services on Sunday, December 22. Adults, youth, and children in first grade and up are encouraged to join! There will be two rehearsals, held on Saturday, December 21 at 9:30 a.m. and Sunday, December 22 at 7:45 a.m. To sign up and listen to the choir's special song, go here.
