Christmas Eve Program
Holy Cross will be having their Children’s Christmas Eve Program this year. Parts have been assigned and the kids have begun practicing and are learning their lines. If you’ve never been, it’s a wonderful program where kids of all ages tell the Christmas Story. The community is invited to attend on Christmas Eve at 6 p.m.
Holy Cross Services
Services at Holy Cross Lutheran Church are Sundays at 9 a.m. Bible Class and Sunday School follow the service.
Midweek communion service is held on the first Wednesday of every month at 9 a.m.
Advent services are the first three Wednesdays in December, both at 10:30 a.m. and 7 p.m.
Sermon streaming videos and additional information is at www.holycrosswarda.com.

Bible Study at Holy Cross will be taking a break for the remainder of the year. Beginning Jan. 6, they will begin a short six-week discussion of the book called “You’ll Get Through This,” by Max Lucado. If you are interested in joining the group, please let Cyndy Zoch know by Dec. 7, as she will be ordering books to have available before Christmas. The approximate cost will be $15.
