We will meet at the Short Pump Whole Foods at 8:00 am and carpool/caravan up to the trail parking lot. The hike is 3.8 miles roundtrip with an easy/moderate difficulty level, that should take us no more than four hours to complete, including time to eat lunch at the halfway point.

We’ll kick things off with the pageant at 5:30, followed by dinner, and a fantastic Christmas carol sing-along. Please bring a dish to share and invite your friends to join us–this event is a wonderul way to introduce new people to our church community. Ornament invitations will be available at the front and back doors of church--please take a few and pass them along to friends and family.
- Art for Advent: City Church is issuing a call to all artists to create and/or submit pieces for Art for Advent.
