Christmas Eve – Two Services

Our Christmas Eve Services:

Christmas Eve is a special night! At Westminster, we will have two evening services. (If you’re looking for information for the Sunday morning service at 10:01am on the 24th click here.)

Here is what to expect in the evening (and you can also see a video description below):

1. SUPER FAMILY-FRIENDLY SERVICE – 5:30-6:05 P.M.

Our first service is our super family-friendly service.

It’s only 35 minutes long! We recognize that many young ones are excited for Christmas and need to get to bed at a decent time. So this is a not-so-silent night. We’ll sing, learn about the nativity story, and even sing Silent Night in the dark; but instead of real candles we’ll hand out battery-operated tea-lights!

The words to songs (and also some videos) are projected on a screen.

If you’re in a position to do so, you may give a donation. 100% of the donations will be given to Youth Haven and the important work they do to support at-risk youth in our community.

The service is in-person, and also live-streamed here.

2. TRADITIONAL CANDLELIT SERVICE – 7-8 P.M.

Our second service is our traditional candlelit service.

We will sing carols, reflect on the nativity story, and be blessed with O Holy Night as the lights go down and we sing some of the quiet carols of Christmas by candlelight. (You’ll be given a candle as you come in the door.)

If you’re in a position to do so, you may give a donation. 100% of the donations will be given to Teen Challenge, a Canadian organization helping individuals struggling through addictions.

The service is in-person, and also live-streamed here.

“But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” -Luke 2:10-12
