Join in the Fun! Come Carol with Us!

Location: Sienna Place Apartments, 850 E. Cheyenne Rd., Colorado Springs, CO 80905.  Meet in front of the office.  Parking for visitors is available around the complex, just please avoid labeled parking spots for residents.

In Victorian England, the tradition of visiting people’s houses and singing—a practice known as wassailing—was adopted for Christmas and became synonymous with “caroling.” While we may not have wassail, we can certainly visit and sing in celebration of Christmas and to bless our community. This year, in partnership with Welcome COS, we want to go outside of our own northern side of the city and engage a community where many of our city's newly arriving refugee families live. Sienna Place Apartments is comprised of 20 apartment buildings on 11 acres with over 900 residents!Come join us as we bring the joy of music and celebration while engaging with a community that is made up of so many different people from refugees to those who are struggling economically.

What to expect: Anyone is welcome, including children! We’ll hand you a booklet with all the words, and walk along the apartments, singing to the residents. They know we are coming, and we expect to make new friends along the way.

What to wear: Please dress in WARM Christmas-themed outfits!  We want to be joyful and celebratory, but also know that the weather can be cold at this time of year so please plan accordingly. 

Forte Concert: A Handbell Quartet

A Sung Compline Service — Saturday, December 7 at 7:00 pm

Beauty will save the world, according to Dostoevsky. Curt Thompson says, “Beauty draws our attention and attunes our hearts to the presence of God.” To quote another friend here in this congregation, Lancia Smith,“Every act of beauty is a defiance of despair, every candle lit repels the darkness.” 

The strongly reinforced theme of the Compline service is this: God is our protector. It is this last service of the Daily Office that deals most directly with the assaults of the enemy and the other perils we face, asking for God’s peace and shelter. Join us for this evening rich with Scripture, music, peace, and beauty. It is an opportunity to lay your cares at God’s throne. 

Come pray for peace on December 7th.

What is Advent and how do I "do" it?  Advent is a season of preparation for Christmas and The Incarnation, as well as its own deep and important season (1-23 December), but sometimes it's hard to learn how to participate fully while doing it. This class will set you up with history, practice and Scripture so that you can more fully enter into this deep and beautiful season and into Christmas itself.

Matthew Clark - Singer, Song Writer, Storyteller

Singer/songwriter/storyteller and Mississippi native Matthew Clark blends a thought-provoking narrative lyricism with well-honed guitar skills to craft songs that have been likened to the work of Andrew Peterson, Phil Keaggy, and James Taylor.

 Each Fall Matthew loads up his tiny-house-in-a-van (a converted Dodge Sprinter dubbed “Vandalf the White”) and travels all over the country playing concerts in homes and churches.  Matthew’s engaging conversational performance style has led concert-goers to comment that the stories between the songs are as enjoyable as the songs themselves.

 “The Well Trilogy” is Matthew’s current project: 3 full-length album/book combos releasing over 3 years. Each installment is made up of 11 songs and a companion book of 13 essays written by a variety of contributors exploring themes around encountering Jesus, faith-keeping, and the return of Christ.
