Great Christmas Weekend Services!


We had a great Christmas weekend at Morning Star this year! On Sunday the 23rd our children's ministry had a small Christmas presentation. They sang four songs and memorized the Christmas story from the Gospel of Luke chapter two. Cyanna del Rosario our children's ministry leader has done a great job of teaching and training the children of our church. Then on Christmas Eve we had two services. Our worship ministry, tech, and drama teams all did a great job of communicating the simple message of Christ's birth. Our creative ministries have really grown and flourished under Andrew's leadership. He has created a great team of people that make events like this happen. We had over 150 different attenders for the weekend and at least 20 first time guests! As a pastor I am especially thankful for huge team effort that went into making this weekend work. It was a great example of normal people working together to create something extraordinary!

Merry Christmas


Merry Christmas! I want all of you to know, especially my immediate family and church family, how much I love and appreciate you. It is the people in my life that bring meaning and purpose to all that I do. There seems to be so much going on at church right now. Our children's ministry did a wonderful job on Sunday singing four Christmas songs and memorizing the Christmas story from Luke chapter two. Cyanna del Rosario is a great children's ministry leader and is doing a wonderful job working with the kids of Morning Star. Tonight we have two Christmas Eve services, one at 5:00pm and one at 8:00pm. It has been exciting to hear from so many of you that you have family and friends coming. Our worship leader and worship team have spent lots of time preparing a wonderful evening for all of us to enjoy. Just about every day I thank God that I get to pastor such a great church and that I have so many friends here at Morning Star. My family wishes you a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!


Don't forget starting on January 6 we are starting an early service at 9:00am in additionl to our normally scheduled 10:35am service.
