Come celebrate the Advent Season with us on Saturday, December 14 or on Sunday, December 15 from 5-7PM as the Haygood youth present the Live Nativity.  There will be live animals and hot chocolate to enjoy.  Invite your friends and family to the Live Nativity and experience the Christmas Story come to life. The Haygood Happy Camper will be open and serving Hot Chocolate and some Christmas Treats on Saturday and Sunday from 4:30 until 7:30PM.

On December 15th, at 11 am in our Sanctuary, Haygood Children will lead worship by performing an Advent Drama entitled "A Play in a Manger". This performance will bring the hope and joy of Advent to life.

The town of Centerton is preparing their annual Christmas Extravaganza–but this year it’s going to be bigger and better than ever, a real over-the-top display. The excitement is off the chart as the writer and director and legend-in-his-own-mind, Cecil V. DeVille, calls for pyrotechnics, sky-diving angels, dancing camels, and more. It’s obvious that this year’s production will be the greatest ever! But when catastrophe and calamity send those grand plans up in smoke, their epic production becomes an epic fail. Visions of grandeur are replaced with the beauty and power of the simple truth of Jesus’ birth: The Son of God, born to humble parents, lying in a simple manger, come to redeem. Now that’s epic!

Join us on December 11! We will be serving from 5:30 until 6:30PM.  Our prices are $12/adult and $7/child. Please make your reservation for dinner by 2PM on Tuesday, December 10th.
