What to Expect

We want to help you create beautiful memories celebrating Christmas Eve where you can bring your whole family and invite all friends.

  • Bring a chair! Hutchinson Square is an open park with little seating, so we encourage you to bring chairs.

  • We’ll have free coffee and a small activity for children at the tents in the back before the service starts. (Coffee service will end at 6:15pm.)

  • The event will start right at 6pm and we’re kicking off with children singing “Hark the Herald Angels Sing.” You won’t want to miss it!

  • The service will incorporate readings from the Bible in multiple languages, Christmas carols, a short message and candle lighting. We expect the service to be less than 60 minutes.

  • Parking around Hutchinson Square is limited, but there is a free parking garage on Short Central or options on S Cedar Street.

  • Our hope is to create a beautiful evening for you and to bless our community as we celebrate the birth our Savior Jesus.
