During this season we tell lots of stories. Some are sentimental, some are morality tales; some faith-filled, some cautionary. As believers, certain stories are more meaningful than others. These are the ones that point us to the celebration of Jesus, born for us. Hearing the story anew, let your heart be filled with wonder at what God is telling you this Christmas.

At some of our Cornerstone sites, we’ll have Family Worship designed especially for families with young children. These interactive experiences give kids the opportunity to be part of the Christmas story, sing songs, and even take home a special gift.
When we hear the stories of those who were part of the first Christmas, we gain a glimpse of how God was at work in their lives—and how He continues to work in ours. On Wednesdays during Advent, we’ll explore the stories of Elizabeth, Joseph, and the shepherds, discovering how God met them in their circumstances, worked through their lives, and fulfilled His promises.

We want you to feel comfortable when you visit us, and that goes for what you’re wearing. There’s no “dress code” here. You’ll see people wearing jeans and a T-shirt, as well as others in dresses, suits, or their favorite Christmas sweater. You’ll fit in no matter how you dress.
Our Christmas Eve services are some of our most attended services of the year. Arriving a few minutes early is always a good idea. But don’t worry! Even if you arrive late, we’ll still have room for you!
We welcome children in worship! Will they get rambunctious and noisy? Maybe–and that’s OK! But, if you feel you need to take them out, we will have a staffed nursery (for infants to 3 year olds) at our Carmel, Fishers, and Eagle Creek sites.
See what’s coming up for our Christmas events!
