Celebrate Christmas Eve with Park Slope UMC"While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth and laid him in a manger, because there was no place in the guest room." — Luke 2: 1-20 NRSVUE
We’ve traveled to Bethlehem, but our journey is not over. We seek out the place where the animals were sleeping. In that messy, unassuming place, the promise of hope, peace, joy, and love combine in one tightly-swaddled infant. This baby needs everything in that moment, just as Jesus calls for our care of each other, of this world, in our moment. We ask ourselves this holy night, “will we open our arms to God?”
The sanctuary has family-friendly pews and children will be invited into the telling of the Christmas story. The church building is accessible with a lift in the atrium and pews for those with wheelchairs or walkers. Please let a greeter know if you need an accommodation. You may worship in the church building or participate on Zoom.
