What to Expect

Whether you are new to church, have been away for a while, or are a regular part of our family, we'd love to welcome you to celebrate with us.

A Warm Welcome: From the moment you arrive, our greeters will make you feel at home, direct you to the best parking, and help you find a seat.
A Family Experience: All of our services are family-friendly, and we invite all ages to join us! If you have kids (birth-age 5), Southall Kids is ready to welcome them and engage them with a Christmas Eve experience they'll love.
A Meaningful Time of Worship & Message: Our service will last 60 minutes from start to finish, and it will include times of worship, a message to reflect on the birth of Christ, and a candlelight ceremony to symbolize the light of Christ coming into the world.

Questions? We Can Help!

What should I wear?
Come as you are! You'll see everything from jeans to holiday sweaters to suits. No matter what, we'll think you look great.

Is there something for my children?
Yes! Both of our services are made to be family-friendly, and you'll see all ages joining us for Christmas Eve. Southall Kids will be available at both services for birth through age 5, and if your family could be served with our Special Needs environment, we encourage you to join us at 2:00pm.

How long are the services?
Services will last about 60 minutes from start to finish.

What is the candlelight ceremony like?
At the end of each service, we dim the lights. We then pass the flame from one candle to another, symbolizing how the light of Christ spreads through the world. Every adult and child (at parents' discretion) will receive a safe, drip-less candle to hold.

Do I need to arrive early?
It's a good idea to arrive 10-15 minutes early to find parking and a seat without feeling rushed.

Do you have accommodations for those with disabilities?
Absolutely. Our facility is wheelchair accessible, and we have reserved parking spots near the entrance. Please ask one of our greeters or parking attendants for assistance.

I'm not a Christian/I have a lot of doubts. Am I still welcome?
Absolutely. You are more than welcome here! There is no prerequisite for faith to attend, and you will not be singled out or pressured. We invite you to come, relax, and enjoy the story of hope we celebrate at Christmas.
