Welcome to Christmas at Lake! This season, we hope that you will be able to join us on an Advent journey that will take us through the end of the year. We have resources for you to pick up that will help guide you and your family as you seek to experience the joy, wonder, and celebration of Christ's coming down to earth.
Advent Devotionals
This Advent season immerse yourself in the expectation and promise of Christ’s coming. Our 4-week Advent Devotional will help guide us through keeping Christ at the center of our Christmas season leading up to Christmas Day. This devotional will be available on a first-come, first-served basis (until supplies run out) starting Sunday, November 26 in the Worship Center Lobby for a suggested donation of just $2. Pick up one - or more - to share with family and friends this joyous season!
Advent Sunday Series
“Promise to Presence:
The Christmas Story from the Old Testament”
As we connect this holiday season, we hope and pray that many of the familiar experiences that help Christmas come alive have returned to your homes, your schools, and your community. We also hope that you will be able to make time and invite friends and family to Advent and Christmas at Lake with all the opportunities for fellowship and worship that the season has to offer.
Our Advent series will delve deep into the timeless and prophetic passages of the Old Testament that foreshadow the miraculous birth of Jesus Christ. “Promise to Presence” will explore the anticipation, hope, and fulfillment found in these ancient prophecies, connecting them to the joyous celebration of Christmas and the profound significance of Christ's arrival into the world. The series will inspire a renewed sense of awe and wonder during the Christmas season, reminding us of the unchanging faithfulness of God's plan for salvation.
We hope that this season will provide you opportunities to celebrate our hope, Emmanuel, as a church family and the larger community of believers in Pasadena and around the world. Join us at 9:30 am on Sundays this Christmas season and into the new year.
