Christmas Eve at Saguaro

Interactive intergenerational, Christmas Eve worship with candles, communion, carols and community. Inspired by the tradition of Las Posadas—meaning “inn” or “lodging”—we will reflect on the journey to the manger (yours, mine, Mary, Joseph, Jesus etc). Come just as you are. All are welcome.
