We are less than one week away from Messy Christmas!! Even as I'm running around trying to gather up gold pens and paper plates (for angel wings of course), trying out new ideas (I totally had a Pinterest "fail" moment with the shepherds costumes), and organizing the chaos that turns into Messy Christmas, I still love this service as much as any worship service we do each year.
There is such truth in the messiness!! The first Christmas story was NOT as clean and beautiful as we make it out to be. It was a mess! And that's the best news of all!
Here's a wonderful blog about the messiness of Christmas - I couldn't have written it any better!

I hope you'll join us for Messy Christmas 2014 - Sunday December 21 - activities for all ages begin at 4pm. Worship is at 5pm with dinner to follow.
