Advent week 2: JOY✨ How can you choose joy this Advent season? ✨ “I think a key idea is the word choice. We can choose to be taken down by the things that are difficult or we can choose to see those difficulties as a blessing from the Lord. Two things are important to remember: the whole last year and all the things the Lord has blessed us with. And also, in this time of Advent when we’re waiting for Christ’s birth, remembering we are waiting with a new hope for something even better and greater in our lives. We are awaiting a further blessing.” ✨ Thank you @chrisjharral for always bringing so much joy to our community through your positive spirit, crazy amazing guitar skills and by sharing your champagne with this snowman.🤣 #ChooseJoy #Advent #TGCchelsea
We're a third of the way to our goal! Thank you for your generosity and sharing in our Christmas offering, our yearly opportunity to be generous beyond regular giving with a focus on meeting our needs in our church community and our city. We replanted earlier this year and have been operating out of a monthly deficit. Join us in faith as we need to meet our goal of $120,000 by January 31st to continue to support our core costs of our Pastor, staff and St. Paul's venue in 2019. Join us as we pray for the ability to expand our spaces of belonging, growing & serving. Please share! Visit www.tgcchelsea.com/2018campaign/ for more. Thank you, family.

Last Sunday, you heard our first Advent poem from our community of artists, describing the tension of hope and longing as we anticipate our coming Christ. Thank you @josephprestamo for your courage and vulnerability to share your words with us, also your beautiful photo featured here. #hope . We’re excited to continue to share pieces curated during Advent exploring themes of joy, peace and love in the coming weeks. Join us this Sunday to reflect with us!
Last night’s holiday themed First Tuesday Feast was full of twinkling lights, warm cups of cider, an amazing home-cooked meal (thank you to all who helped chop veggies for hours!), cookie decorating and great conversation around the table. A big thank you to all who came and helped to create a beautiful night of community in our city! Looking forward to continuing to gather together every first Tuesday of the month in 2019. ✨ #FirstTuesdayFeast #TGCchelsea
