Christmas Candlelight Invitation

12/16/21 | The Weekly | by Eric Wakeling

    Dear Calvary Family,

    I’ve been falling in love with Luke 2:10-11 this Christmas - specifically the phrase that our sermon series is based on:

    "Good News of Great Joy for All People"

    How beautiful is that when you really stop and think about it?

    In a world of bad news, this news is good! It’s not just good news, but it’s good news about joy. And not just joy, but great joy! The biblical Greek language for great is the word “megas” and I love that word. It’s all good news about MEGA-JOY!!! It feels like a word from the '80s - MEGA-JOY!

    And this mega-joy is for all people - everyone.

    You know what that means? That means that this great joy is for you. This great joy is for your family and friends that you care so deeply about. This great joy if for our neighborhoods. This great joy is for our country. This great joy is for our entire world.

    That’s what we pray and hope you and your loved ones will experience at Calvary's Christmas Candlelight services on:

    THURSDAY, DECEMBER 23 at 7:00 PM
    FRIDAY, DECEMBER 24* at 4:00 PM
    (*ASL available on December 24)

    Help spread the word and invite those you know to come experience the Good News of Great Joy through beautiful music, creative elements, a biblical message, and the lighting of candles.  See more details and what to expect by visiting our Christmas website at SantaAnaChristmas.com

    Merry Christmas,
    Eric
