Christmastide - The Twelve Days of Christmas
📅 December 25th - January 5th
The Twelve Days of Christmas are not a countdown to December 25th! The Season of Christmastide begins on Christmas Day inviting us to stay near the mystery we celebrate: the Word made flesh, God with us in the beauty and the ordinary of our lives.
These days are a gentle pause between the year that has ended and the one just beginning, calling us to slow down, to breathe deeply, and to let the light of Christ settle into our hearts. As we journey Christmastide, we remember that the story of Christmas is not a moment but a season of receiving, rejoicing, and awakening again to the nearness of God.
Christmas Fellowship Dinner
📅 NEXT Sunday, December 28th
Join us for our Christmas Fellowship Dinner as we gather around the table to celebrate the season together. A meal train will be provided, making space for us to simply come, share a meal, and enjoy one another’s company. All are welcome. Come as you are and let’s celebrate the joy, warmth, and togetherness of Christ’s coming.
Meal Train is provided to bring food/drink items needed!
Thrive Marriage Enrichment Weekend
📅 Friday & Saturday, February 6th & 7th
Thrive Marriage Enrichment Weekend is designed for couples contemplating, engaged, & married couples to reconnect, strengthen communication, and grow together in God’s purpose for their relationship. Join us for a meaningful time of encouragement and renewal.
Winter Baptism Sunday
📅 Sunday, January 13th
Baptism is a public declaration of your faith in Jesus—a beautiful picture of dying to your old life and being raised to new life in Him. It’s an outward expression of an inward transformation, showing
the world that you are a follower of Christ.
If you’re ready to take this next step, you can still sign up for our baptism service at wolministry.org/baptism.
