Come with family and friends with your candle, or purchase a special Live IT Candle there. In procession, it will be placed at the Burning Bush, which will illuminate Jesus in Exposition. We invite you to take the Live IT Challenge- an invitation for families and groups to gather in their homes once a week for seven weeks during Advent and Christmas-- light their candle and enjoy meaningful interaction facilitated by a downloadable Live IT Gathering Guide.
It's about Christmas Presence.

Oh... the magic and wonder of Christmas!
Remember looking through the catalogues as kids? Wondering and hoping for that special present? Remember the lights, colors and aromatic smells of something baking... Bing Crosby in the background? It's worth asking: What is the meaning of Christmas? Is it about the presents? Where are those presents today? What enduring, meaningful impact did they have on our lives? How are we different because of them?
While presents are an important part of Christmas, at the heart of it all is the fact that we have been fashioned for presence. We need God. We need so much more than cliche, or empty obligations... we need to know God. Christmas is a grace-filled season where God offers us His Presence in Jesus Christ. He is the Present. And He makes us Presents to each other!
