The Christmas and Advent seasons can be a busy and noisy time. A lot demands our attention. We invite you to take time for yourself, be quiet and reconnect with the sacred. Our congregation sets aside one day in Advent each year to prayerfully reflect on the divine gift of God coming to make God’s home with us in the birth of Jesus. This year, that day is Wednesday, Dec. 6, 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. in...
Behold is an old word that means "Don't miss this!" and it reminds us to stop and enjoy the simple joys and everyday miracles of this Advent and Christmas season. We hope you will join us for the Second Sunday of Advent - Peace Sunday.
We invite you to be spiritually prepared this Christmas by making time for slowing down from the hustle and bustle of the season to listen and reflect and find a time of peace. Join us in the sanctuary/chancel or on Zoom for a short Advent service of music, readings, silence, and lighting of the Advent candles - an opportunity to slow down and BEHOLD God’s presence.

Our 108th Annual Christmas Pageant will be held during worship. This joyous tradition features our church’s children and youth portraying the timeless story of Jesus' birth. As the angel said, “BEHOLD!” Poinsettia Party After the Pageant, please come to Tolman Hall for refreshments and to pick up a poinsettia and a card (or two!) to deliver to someone who would appreciate some holiday cheer from WCC!
This year, the Fourth Sunday of Advent happens to be December 24. We will light the Advent candle on the Sunday of Love and hear a story and sermon that look forward to the birth of Jesus.
BEHOLD! Christ is born! Glorious music, Christmas bells, a children’s story, and hearing the story of Jesus’ birth as told by Luke. Come one, come all! Or join us by livestream: https://www.youtube.com/@WinnetkaCongregationalChurch, Nursery available.
