Christmas Eve Afternoon

  • Vincent United Methodist Church 100 Vincent Place Nutley United States (map)

Our church offers two different opportunities on Christmas Eve to celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ! Both services will be held in the church sanctuary and also be available for viewing on the church Facebook page and by Call-In on the usual Sunday morning numbers. The Family Service will be held at 4:00 p.m. It will include the lighting of the Advent and Christ Candles, carols, scripture, and feature “Our Own Christmas Pageant” as we re-enact the nativity with costumed characters from among the children who attend the service. While this service may be less formal, all of the children and youth make it very special!  The Traditional Service will be held at 9:00 p.m., with prelude music featuring soloists, the Wesley Ringers, and the Chancel Choir beginning at 8:45 p.m.  The service will include carols, scriptures, music by the Choir, “O Holy Night,” a Christmas sermon, and the Service of Candlelighting. This is a lovely and moving service that brings peace and joy to the heart! Whichever service fits your schedule or style, we hope you'll come with family and friends to sing "Joy to the world! The Lord is come!"
