“My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant" (Luke 1:46-48). May we be like Mary this Advent. Let's not forget to rejoice in the good news of the coming of Jesus!

Lord, God, we remember your redemption of all humanity today. Thank you for your son, and thank you for victory over the fallenness in the world.

What a great pair of shows with Darden the Band! Thank you so much for blessing our church with beautiful songs celebrating the season. Check out fccbrea.org/christmas for info about more Christmas events at FCC.

The world is often dark and full of storms, but Jesus' light is always present. Lord, open our eyes to your light. Let our feet not stray from you and your path, because we know it is good.

Celebrate the birth of our Savior with us! Christmas services at FCC take place DEC 22 at 6 PM, and DEC 24 at 3 PM, 4:30 PM and 6 PM.

Wait for it… 😂😂😭

God really knows how to paint. Thank you, Lord, for blessing us with the beauty of creation! (Photo from this past Saturday's evening service time.)

Today is Epiphany, the last day of Christmastide celebrating the Magi visiting the Christ child! Let us be wise men (and women) today and continue to follow Christ.

When you have a few minutes today, please intentionally pray for our neighbors experiencing the effects of the fires in Los Angeles county. Lord, bless this land with healing.

Lord, we have faith in your healing power. Bless our neighbors who are poor in spirit, and bring comfort to those who mourn.

#MissionMomentMonday: Thank you so much to all of our volunteers and leaders (and Spider-Man) who helped make Friday's Night to Shine event (sponsored by the Tim Tebow Foundation) a success! The night went amazingly, and this year we got to host 87 honored guests.

Remember that true wisdom always stems from God, and the best discernment is gained through community. Take a moment to remember what is most important. Spend time in communion with God and your community this week.

Lent begins tomorrow. What is God calling you to give up this season? Is God calling you to TAKE up something this season?

Who's still recovering from the daylight saving time change? See you this weekend for worship and a good word from Pastor Chris! Service times are Saturday at 5 PM and Sunday at 9 AM or 10:30 AM.
