Christmas and Advent at Reveille

There is a place for you at Reveille this Advent and Christmas.

As we celebrate the coming of Christ, we invite you to join us for inspiring worship services, cherished musical events, opportunities to serve our neighbors, and meaningful traditions for all ages. Together, we will reflect on God's gifts of hope, peace, joy, and love in worship, support local ministries through seasonal giving opportunities, and gather for special services, including the Service of Remembrance, Christmas Eve, and Watch Night. We hope you'll make Reveille part of your Advent and Christmas journey this year.

This holiday season, join us for an upcoming service, event, or outreach opportunity!

We are excited to share Advent and Christmas with you! If you need more information about an opportunity below, please reach out to us.
