Kids Christmas Play

Estero Kids are excited to present this year’s Christmas play, The Lights of Christmas, on December 10th at the 9:30 and 11 am services.

When you look around at Christmas, you're bound to see lights! They shine from treetops to rooftops. Our Christmas program is about the journey, all about lights, to discover exactly what happened on the first Christmas Night.

There will be dancing, singing and so many laughs at this year’s Christmas play.  We’re saving a seat for YOU!

We have a special service planned for Christmas Eve.  There will be Christmas worship songs, a special message from Pastor Tim, and a joyful celebration of the Savior's birth.

Preschool and Elementary-aged kids and above are invited to join the adult services. We will provide something specifically for those kids to enjoy, and the whole service is just under an hour long.

FAMILY ADVENT GUIDE

When we honestly share our stories with one another, it brings the opportunity to encourage each other and to celebrate the faithfulness of God. It’s in our stories we find the evidence of a God who sees us, offers His love and continuously writes hope into our lives. He invites us into the real story, His story.
