At Grace Church, we celebrate Christmas as many do—with trees and lights, holiday decorations, caroling, and food. There are wreaths hung around the Sanctuary, Advent candles glowing, and you might even see Santa Claus (or at least a few older men with great beards!).

But we believe that Christmas is more than a sentimental season. It is the joyful celebration of God’s covenant of grace revealed in the incarnation of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. The eternal Word became flesh to redeem those under the law, fulfill all righteousness, atone for our sins, make peace between God and sinners, and gather to Himself a people from every nation, tribe, and tongue.

At Christmas, we rejoice in the faithfulness of our covenant God, who fulfilled His promise of salvation by sending His Son, Jesus Christ. From the first gospel promise in Genesis to the birth in Bethlehem, we see God’s amazing grace and steadfast love toward His people.

As we worship the incarnate Lord, we remember that His coming brings light to our darkness and life to all who are united to Him by faith. Through Christ, we are brought into the family of God and made heirs of His everlasting promises. Remembering and celebrating His first coming gives us hope and strength as we await His glorious return.

So come and join us this Christmas as we worship the newborn King and celebrate the covenant faithfulness of our God!

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given;

and the government shall be upon his shoulder,

and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,

Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

— Isaiah 9:6 (ESV)
