Ugly Christmas
December 24, 2023
Gatherings at 9:00am & 11:00am
SAVE THE DATE! We want to invite you, your family and friends to join us for Christmas at Hope City!
In the midst of the joy and awe of the Christmas season, let’s be honest, life can be pretty messy and sometimes downright ugly. This Christmas, we want to invite you to embrace the beauty within the messiness of life in a profound way through our UGLY CHRISTMAS experience. On a day in history, our God chose to take on flesh and step into our imperfections, embracing the ugliness of our world and lives to bring light, healing and hope.
Our Gatherings at 9:00 & 11:00am will be filled with joy, singing, community and a powerful message that resonates with the realities of life. In the middle of life’s challenges and ugliness, Christmas reminds us that there is always hope.
