Advent at GardenCity

Our First Christmas: Where Our Story Begins

This Advent is our first Christmas as GardenCity, and we are stepping into it with a sense of wonder and gratitude. Throughout the season, we are creating space for our church family to slow down, look for Jesus in the middle of everyday life, and celebrate the story God is writing among us. From our weekly gatherings to simple practices at home, Advent invites us to begin this new chapter together with hope, joy, and expectation.

Sundays at 10am and Christmas Eve Services at 3pm & 6pm

Your Story Matters

Join us this Christmas season as we worship together, celebrate hope, and lean into the story God is writing here. We would love to see you at one of our services.

What to Expect

Our Family Story

This Christmas, we are gathering the stories that make us who we are. Our Family Story is an invitation to pause, reflect, and name the moments that have shaped you. Using a few simple prompt questions, you can share a piece of your journey and help us see the beauty of what God is doing in our church family.


  • What are you waiting for right now?
  • Where did you see a flicker of hope or unexpected peace this year?
  • What brings you ridiculous joy?
  • Where do you feel God’s love?


Stop by either foyer this Sunday to pick up a card, write your story, and add it to our Family Story Book, or simply use the form below to share your story digitally.


Every story matters, and every contribution helps us remember that we are becoming GardenCity together.

Family Advent Guide

This year’s Family Advent Guide is designed to help you create small, meaningful moments that fit naturally into your week. Inside, you will find a short weekly devotion, a few Table Talk questions to spark conversation, and a simple family activity that brings each theme to life. Our hope is that these gentle rhythms help your family slow down, pay attention, and rediscover the wonder of the Christmas story together.
