Sisters’ downtown park, with its Christmas lights all aglow, is the perfect setting for an evening of hot cocoa, singing Christmas songs, hearing the Christmas story and candle-lighting. We’ll gather at Fir Street Park on the corner of Main and Fir from 4 p.m. to 4:40ish. Park opens at 3:30 p.m. Seating is limited, so if you need to sit, please bring a chair. All are welcome at Vast Church. We don’t believe people should feel they have to be good enough to show up at our doors. Quite the opposite, in fact. We all face challenges, struggles, hurt, pain, temptation and failure. But only by meeting together, living in community and exploring the love of Jesus can we endure, heal, thrive and discover true joy.
