Have you ever asked can Jesus fulfill God's promises?
A promise is an assurance that a certain thing will come to pass. People make promises they can't always keep but God is different. When God makes a promise, we can be confident that God will fulfill it. The Bible is full of God's promises, including the promise of a Savior.
On Christmas Eve we celebrate that Jesus came as the Messiah, the One who would save the people from their sins. Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies spoken of Him through the ages, and in Jesus, we see a beautiful picture of the fullness of God.
This Christmas Eve celebrate the Promise with us.
We would love for you to join us Onsite or Online at one of our 3 services to celebrate Christmas Eve at Good Shepherd. Masks are encouraged in common spaces but not when you are seated for in-person attendance.
We look forward to spending Christmas Eve with you here or at home!
