Merry Christmas and welcome to our special Scandia Bible Church Christmas Eve Service for 2023 as we gather with the multitude of the heavenly host to praise Him, saying,
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”
As is our tradition, in addition to a sermonette from Pastor Monty, this evening’s service will present a progression of scripture readings, congregational hymns, and instrumental and vocal music from our church family… to remind and retell an event that would forever change the world.
