Unlike so many who have secularized Christmas, we choose to join together in singing praises to God. Like the Angels did on the night of Christ’s birth, we declare “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men” (Luke 2:14).</div> Thu, 11 Dec 2025 15:21:56 +0000 Emmanuel Missionary Choir Winter Concert http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/68627 The Emmanuel Missionary Choir warmly invites the community to join them for an evening of music as they present their Winter Concert under the theme, “Go Tell It On The Mountain.” The concert will take place on Saturday, Dec. 13, at 6 p.m. in the Andrews University Seminary Chapel.

Her sermon is titled "God's Grace in Unlikely Places." Multiple passages in the Bible seem to be opposite to God's grace, and yet even there, God's grace can be seen! This is something to be extra thankful for on this Thanksgiving Sabbath. The church service begins at 9:30 a.m. followed by Sabbath School at 11 a.m. All are welcome.   The Eau Claire church is located at 6562 Naomi Road in Eau Claire. Prayer meeting is at 7 p.m. on Wednesdays via Zoom.

Pastor Shepherd continues his series on the parables of Jesus with a sermon titled, "Give Me Oil in My Lamp." Preparation for the Second Coming of Jesus is serious business. We do well to learn the lesson from the parable of the 10 virgins. The church service begins at 9:30 a.m. followed by Sabbath School at 11 a.m. A fellowship meal follows the service.
