Sundays Dec. 4, 11, and 18 at 9:30 a.m. in Resurrection Hall: On Sunday mornings this Advent, we explore the Stations of the Nativity together, which invite us on the same sort of spiritual pilgrimage through the places and events of Jesus’ birth.
Christmas Day, Sunday, Dec. 25, we worship at 10 a.m. only. The nursery will not be staffed but will be open for parents to use. A livestream will be available at rlcindy.org/live.
All students in grades 6-12, come for our FaithBuilders & Youth Group Christmas Party, Sunday, Dec. 18 from 5:15-7:45 p.m. Enjoy pizza, a hot cocoa bar, Christmas games, and other surprises!
Give back this Advent season with Resurrection’s Sharing Wreath! The Sharing Wreath provides gifts for 40 children from 19 families at Douglas MacArthur Kindergarten Academy. Please wrap gifts, label with the family and child information, and return to church by Sunday, Dec. 11.
Christmas Eve, Saturday, Dec. 24: Worship in-person at 5 or 7 p.m. Both worship services include Holy Communion and the traditional singing of Silent Night by candlelight. Childcare is available.
Thursday, Dec. 15, 7 p.m. The holidays are not the most wonderful time of the year for everyone and can bring a mixed bag of emotions. This quiet, contemplative worship service offers sacred space for those who wish to mark the coming of Christ in a quieter, more contemplative way.

Advent is a time when we prepare our hearts and homes to celebrate Jesus at Christmas. One way we can prepare is by pausing and thinking about why and how we celebrate this season. This week we pause in love and reflect on the meaning of the Advent season.
