Christmas Events 2023
Christmas Eve Services
Join us as we celebrate the birth of our King, Jesus. The real reason for the Holiday season. We are offering 4 services on-campus & on-line (@ 11:00 AM, 1:00PM, 2:45 PM, 4:30 PM)
Then 3 additional services that are online only (@ 7:00 PM, 9:00 PM, & 12:00 AM). It promises to be a service with an amazing message, beautiful music, fun and Christmas cheer.
You can RSVP for a service to let us know you are coming or you can just show up with your family and friends.
While we would love to have you on-campus, you also always have the option of watching online.
We will not be open on Christmas day. We wish you a warm, safe, Christ filled Christmas!
Christ Birthday Offering
Christmas at Foothills is a special time of the year. The music, the messages, Christmas Eve services, the toy drive, and much more. Our mission drives us to consistently present the gospel message of Jesus and be the best church we can be for our community and the world.
Each year, in honor of the Birth of Jesus, we have a special focus of giving that goes beyond our regular habit of generosity. It is designed to make a specific and immediate impact.
If you would like to learn more about how you can contribute to the Christ Birthday Offering or what was accomplished with last year’s offering, check out our CBO page or you can give here.
Christmas Eve Carolers
We are inviting all 6th grade to adults to sing before and after Christmas Eve services at Foothills! This is a fun opportunity to spread Christmas joy to all who attend services starting out in the parking lot when they first arrive!
Learn more and sign up to sing and welcome people to service.
FH Kids Choir
We are inviting all FH Kids age 3 years through 5th grade to sing during Christmas Eve services at Foothills! This is a fun opportunity to see your children worshipping on stage and invite the family to watch also!
Kids will be singing one song and then will sit with parents. We are excited to worship with the kids on Christmas Eve!
Advent Devotional Series
We want to keep your focus on the reason for the season, Jesus. So we have created a digital devotional series just for you. We are reading verses from the Bible each day in December, then you will have one video each day sent directly to your phone with a devotional from one of our staff members.
Our hope is you will grow closer to Jesus as we get closer to celebrating his birth on December 25th.
To sign up to receive the videos just text “fhadvent2023” to 97000. If you are getting started late you will jump in on the current study and have the option of watching the previous videos as well.
Ugly Christmas Sweater Sunday
If you know anything about Foothills, we don’t take ourselves too seriously, and we like to have fun. So join us in wearing your best ugly sweater on Sunday, December 17!
CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICE FAQs
How will we take Communion?
We will have a time set aside in the service for you to practice Communion in your home or on-campus.
For those on campus, we will have communion elements on each seat.
For those participating at home, it doesn’t have to be grape juice or crackers. This time is more about the meaning of communion and experience together. If there are graham crackers and some apple juice, consider it good!
What About the Kids?
We are offering on-campus childcare for children ages 4 and under. Otherwise, we encourage your kids to sit with you in the service, Pastor Doug’s message will be family-friendly.
Are all the services the same?
Yes each online service will have the same content:
• Worship
• Message
• Communion
• Habit of Generosity
