Advent is the season when we prepare ourselves to receive God’s gift of Jesus. It is the four weeks prior to Christmas and is a time of “getting ready” for the coming birth of Jesus. At WordServe Church this year we are inviting all our families to join us in preparing for and celebrating Jesus’ birth together.
