Hilltop UMC // 10am ADVENT 4: Impromptu Christmas Program // December 21, 2025

🌟 Welcome to Hilltop United Methodist Church! 🌟 Prepare the Way for the Lord is an Advent/Christmas journey that invites us to walk alongside John the Baptist as we ready our lives for the coming of Christ. Through the stories of Zechariah and Elizabeth, the miracle of John’s birth, his bold ministry in the wilderness, and his call to compassion and repentance, we’ll rediscover what it means to live expectantly in a world longing for light. Each week opens space for reflection on prayer, grace, doubt, silence, generosity, and the ways our lives can point more clearly to Jesus. As Christmas approaches, we stand with the first witnesses who testified to the Light, preparing not only for a holy night but for a transformed way of living shaped by Christ’s coming presence. ✅ Subscribe to stay updated on worship and events. ✅ Gather for Worship—Sundays at 10:00 AM (in-person & online). ✅ Come say hello!
