Light Shimmering Through A Darkness
The Christmas story continues into the shadows. Jesus’ family flees as refugees. Herod’s violence leaves grief in its wake. And yet, God is still with us. Through courage, trust, and faithful obedience, light shimmers through the darkness. Join us as we worship the Christ who is born into a broken world—and leads us in hope.

God With Us
On this Fourth Sunday of Advent, we gather to celebrate God With Us through story and song, the lighting of the Candle of Joy, a Christmas program, and the celebration of baptism. At the heart of our worship is the Christmas pageant, “The Gifts of the Journey,” where children and adults alike are invited to journey through the sanctuary in search of a special baby. Along the way, we encounter shepherds, angels, travelers, and wise ones, and we gather gifts we cannot hold—gifts of the heart: love, care for creation, peace and justice, curiosity, and joy—the hopes we carry for every child.
This Sunday we also celebrate the baptisms of Arik Rian Christy and Lyana Rose Iyengar. As Advent draws us ever closer to Christmas, we prepare room in our hearts, trusting that God meets us on the way and rejoices among us. Join us.

God With Mary, The Faithful
This Sunday, we light the Candle of Joy and remember Mary—the young woman whose faithful “yes” made space for God to enter the world. When the angel’s message disrupted her life and filled her with questions, Mary chose to trust that God’s promise was bigger than her fear.
In a season that asks much of us, we are reminded that joy is not the absence of fear but the presence of God in the unknown. Come, beloved community—let us listen for God’s call, find courage in our questions, and say “yes” to the hope being born among us.

God With the Shepherds, The Dismissed
This Sunday, we light the Candle of Love and remember the shepherds—the ones dismissed, unseen, and uninvited—who were the first to hear heaven’s song. In a field under the stars, ordinary people were chosen to proclaim extraordinary news: ‘Emmanuel, God with us.’
God’s love reaches those on the edges and invites each of us to take our place in the story. Come and worship the One who transforms the forgotten into messengers of joy, and who meets us in the ordinary moments of our lives.

God With Joseph, The Dutiful
This Sunday we enter the holy season of Advent—four weeks of preparing our hearts to welcome Jesus, the Messiah, God With Us. This year we journey alongside the people who first waited for and welcomed Christ into the world. Through their stories, we will discover anew how God is with us here and now.
We begin with Joseph, the Dutiful (Matthew 1:18–25). The Christmas story starts with a dilemma: Mary is pregnant, and Joseph knows the child is not his. Out of duty and decency, he plans a quiet divorce. But God interrupts his dutifulness with revelation—inviting him not just to “do the right thing,” but to participate in God’s extraordinary plan.
Come join us as we enter Advent through Joseph’s faithful yes.

Core Value: Christ
This week we continue exploring our Core Value of Christ—what it means to truly live and love like Jesus. Drawing from Colossians 1:11-20 and Luke 23:33-38, we’ll reflect on Christ who holds all things together and how He shapes every aspect of our lives. Indeed, our identity is forever transformed when we become His followers, leaving behind our old selves and embracing the new life He offers. Your former pastor, Rev. Renae Extrum-Fernandez is preaching the last session of the Core Value of Christ. Come and join us.

God With Us Advent 2025 | Embracing the Story of Jesus
(From the United Methodist of Greater New Jersey worship series)
In the season of Advent, we prepare to welcome Jesus, the Messiah in God With Us. This year, as we await our Lord, we will put ourselves in the place of the first people who awaited and celebrated Jesus’ birth. Through their stories, we will learn what it meant for God to be with them, and we will open our eyes to experience God with us, too.
