McArthur Church

The Christmas season can be busy and full of grand events. A candlelight service is a great way to slow down and celebrate the birth of Jesus. To stop and thank God for the love, joy, peace, and hope we find in Him.

We invite you to join us on December 24th for McArthur Church's Christmas Eve Candlelight Service!
