Servicio de Navidad -- Covenant en Español
Redescubre esta época maravillosa de la Navidad cuando Dios se hizo hombre y quiso habitar entre nosotros y con nosotros. Jesús, el Mesías prometido por los profetas, ha nacido en Belén. El Servicio de Navidad de Covenant es una oportunidad de conectarnos con Dios mientras cantamos villancicos, leemos las Escrituras y escuchamos un mensaje de Navidad. El servicio culminará con la ceremonia de las velitas. ¡En Covenant, los niños siempre son bienvenidos! Ofrecemos opciones de cuidado infantil para niños menores de 10 años o, si lo prefiere, sus hijos pueden quedarse con usted en el culto. Un Cry Room también está disponible justo al lado del santuario.
