Christ’s Birthday Observance 2020
Theme: World Changer

Scripture: Isaiah 9:6 NIV:
 “For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

  


With one tiny cry, everything changed. Years of oppression withering under the weight of a tiny child. But this was no ordinary child. Hundreds of years before this child came into the world, deliverance was promised. Isaiah spoke to a people who had wandered from faithfulness, who were lost in darkness. While he prophesied the coming captivity, he also promised liberation.

On that night, in the most unlikely of places, Jesus was born.Imagine his mother Mary, carefully swaddling her new baby, counting his fingers and toes. She probably gazed at his innocent face, unaware of the weight of the moment.
​This was the moment the world changed.

Join us as we celebrate this moment- the moment when the world changed. Many times, we approach Christmas absorbed with tradition or busyness. This year, however, let’s recognize the change that Christ brought to the world. Let’s acknowledge that in his life, death, and resurrection, we find wholeness and healing. Let’s celebrate that because Jesus’ birth changed the world, we are now called to also embody this change to a world so desperately in need of a loving savior.

Each year, we invite you to join us on a journey through advent. This year we continue this journey, by focusing on the change that Christ brought and the change we are invited to embody. This journey through the advent series will culminate in the collection of an offering called the Christ's Birthday Offering. This offering enables missionaries around the world to spread the gospel. It funds domestic organizations like HEART, a training school for missionaries, as well. It contributes to the Church of God’s ministry to youth through the International Youth Convention and the National Inspirational Youth Convention. This offering changes the world.


At Christian Women Connection, we invite you to partner with us as we seek to change the world. Journey with us through a devotional booklet. As a church, utilize our worship recommendations, sermon outlines, and materials to reach out to those in your community. We will release our Christ's Birthday Observance materials in the early fall in order to plan for your Advent experience with us.
