Christmas: Share Joy - City on a Hill

Encounter joy
this Christmas

The joy of Jesus is for all.

Joy is for those who feel insignificant, unworthy or forgotten. Joy is for those who have tried it all and still feel empty.

Joy interrupts our ordinary lives and captures our gaze.

True joy brings hope, light and life and that joy infiltrated earth the day Jesus was born. The glory of heaven brought down for all to see and experience who God is.

Just as the lowly shepherds heard good news of great joy that a saviour was born, we too can encounter true joy.

Come and find lasting joy in Jesus this Christmas.
