Shawnee UMC Drive-In Christmas Eve Service | East Parking Lot (Shawnee Road) | December 24th @ 7pm | Lyric Sheet Here
Join us for a once-in-lifetime outdoor Christmas Eve worship service that’s fun for all ages. Feel free to bring a chair and sit outside, or sit in the warmth of your car as we safely socially distance to sing carols, read scripture, and tell the Christmas story. We’ll even conclude the service with candle-lighting and singing Silent Night, all caught on video/photography from above by drone. We’ll post the video of the lit up parking lot on our Facebook Page and website, as well as hang a photo in our church as a reminder that our faith was not defeated in 2020! Be a part of church history, and let your light shine. All are welcome! Bring the whole family.
