Two Christmas Eve Services To Be Held At Cypress Church

Community residents are invited to celebrate the birth of Jesus through music and Scripture at Cypress Church on Christmas Eve. There will be two worship services at 4:30 p.m. and also at 7:00 p.m. This is a great opportunity to reflect on the true meaning of the Holiday Season. Jesus Christ came as the *Light of the World* and candles will be lit as a symbol of His mission to humanity.

This year Cypress Church has been emphasizing the theme *simply Christmas.* The idea is that we should give our time in service to others as an alternative to gifts. The greatest gift in history was the physical presence of Jesus who came to earth as God in the flesh so that he could relate to his creation and die on the cross to redeem all who will believe in Him. The Children’s Ministry musical on December 13th was entitled “The Best Christmas Present Ever” and exemplified this theme.

Members of the Cypress Church congregation have been finding ways to be living gifts to people in need. During November Cypress Church served at the Cypress Senior center as part of the Veteran’s Tribute. On Thanksgiving about seventy volunteers fed the homeless in Los Angeles. On December 5th a group from the church went to Mexico to share the love of Jesus with the needy near Tijuana. During Christmas week the *Knights of the Holy Grill* will serve food to disadvantaged families in South Central LA.
