When the Fullness of Time Had Come…

Join us as we celebrate the ultimate worth-the-wait moment: the birth of Jesus. He came to bring light into the darkness and purpose into our lives — all in God’s perfect timing.

Invite your family and friends, and come as you are. Whether you’re new to Compassion or you’ve celebrated with us for years, you’ll find a place to slow down, be present, and experience the true joy of Christmas. There’s a seat for you here.
Our Christmas Eve services will last about an hour and include music, an impactful message, and programming for kids from birth through Pre-K.
