A Service of Healing & Hope

Christmas Eve Candlelight Services
5pm Family • Worship Ctr
7pm Traditional • Worship Ctr
In the face of stress and strife, finding joy may seem impossible. But then … Christmas. The birth of Jesus 2,000 years ago changed the world and today his birth still offers us hope for the future. This Christmas, you’re invited to lay down your worries and find joy at Lake Travis UMC. We’re offering two candlelight services — one ideal for families with small children at 5pm and a traditional worship at 7pm. Come one, come all. We can’t wait to celebrate Christmas with you!

Classes & Studies

Thursdays, Jan 8-Feb 19
Women at the Well Bible Study
10am • Activities Ctr Rm 101
Who am I? But the first question we need to ask is: Who is God? Then we can begin to consider, And who am I in light of who He is? We’re adopted children and fellow citizens with the saints because of God’s loving pursuit on our behalf. /// In this 7-session study, Jackie Hill Perry, Jasmine Holmes, and Melissa Kruger walk through the book of Ephesians, examining the invaluable truths Paul’s letter holds for us today. Along the way, they’ll help us understand the riches of our inheritance as daughters of our heavenly Father, as well as what it means to walk in a manner worthy of our calling.
