Worship Fully, Spend Less, Give More, Love All

As I said Sunday, I have been really challenged by the Advent Conspiracy "movement".  I encourage you to check out www.adventconspiracy.org and watch their short promo videos.

Imagine what our church could do this Christmas if we all committed to spending less and giving more. By shifting our focus to the poor and needy we can reduce the stress and debt this season of consumerism creates.  We can choose to celebrate Christmas authentically by worshipping Christ and building relationships with others. We have the opportunity to truly take part in the redemptive work of Christ in this world.

While we encourage you to seek out multiple avenues to help those in need, one way you can get involved with our own "Advent Conspiracy" is to participate in the annual Kids Fighting Aids Christmas party.  This party is given to kids in Nashville who are struggling with HIV/AIDS.  Grab an angel off the MCAG angel tree and lets bless these kids with an amazing Christmas.  Our choir will be singing, our kids will be handing out candy canes, and the kids will be blessed with many gifts! It will be an amazing and fun time for everyone involved!
