Christmas Eve Service 3pm at Mill Creek Middle School

Worship at Mill Creek Middle School • 8001 Mize Road

Pray your way through each and every day. It will not always be this hard. Care for yourself well. Be alone with God. Surround yourself with others. Do what you can do–physically, emotionally and spiritually–trust and seek our Almighty, All-Powerful God for what you cannot do. May you find God in everyday moments, places and people. May He give wisdom and discernment at this tender time. Grieve in your own unique way. We are all a work in progress. God is always at work. –excerpts from Comfort my people walkingthroughscripture.com view online: https://issuu.com/walkingthroughscripture
