Meal Night: January 22nd

One of our strongest desires and values at the Branch is to see people connected in meaningful, life-giving relationships. Meal nights are one of the ways that we live out this value. As we gather for a meal, names are learned, stories are shared and relationships are deepened….

Mission

Mission is at the heart of the Branch. Every month we’re reaching out to serve and love. We hope you’ll join us. This month we’re focusing our energies on….

Welcome

CURRENT SERIES: Chances are good you’ve heard the Christmas story. You know it involves a manger, some angels and sheep, and of course, the drummer boy.

But while the iconic characters may be familiar, it’s easy for the deeper themes and promises of Christmas to get lost in the chaos of the season.

And so this Advent — instead of adding more glitz, glamour and noise — we’re choosing simplicity and consistency. We want to carve out the space needed for our hearts to be able to hear again the depth and beauty of that first Christmas.

Towards that endeavor, we are committing ourselves to read the Bible every day of Advent — following the lectionary. Our hope is that this ancient and widely used way of reading the Bible (millions of Christians every week use the lectionary) will keep us rooted in the preparation, hope, joy, and love of Christmas.

We hope you’ll join us this Advent.
