The Advent season is upon us and we look forward to returning once again to the historical themes of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love. This year we will approach these themes through a deeply pastoral lens that will link our hearts and souls to the incarnation of God in man in a unique way. Join together each week leading up to Christmas in both Troy and Saratoga for these themes:

HOPE | dec. 2nd

JOY | dec. 9th

PEACE | dec. 16th

LOVE | dec. 23rd

On Christmas Eve we will join our two locations together for combined services on Dec. 24th at 5:30PM and 7:00PM in Troy at Revolution Hall  [425 River Street].

This Sunday we return to our Proverbs summer series looking at what Proverbs has to teach us regarding Friendships.
