We Give Thanks to our Lord;
His Steadfast Love Endures Forever
Make a joyful noise to the Lord,
all the earth!
Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!
Know that the Lord, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, and the sheep
of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!
For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to
all generations.
Psalm 100

Join us for an

They give Jesus their love, their worship, and their hearts. That is what Jesus wants from all of us this Christmas. He wants to live in our hearts and be our all in all.
