Christmas Eve Service Times

We have two services to pick from and we hope they help you start your Christmas by looking at the birth of the Savior of the world.

What to Expect

You might be new to church and how things operate, so here is a rundown of our Christmas Eve Services for you: 

  • We start right on time, and we are expecting a packed house, so if you want a good seat we would recommend getting here 15 minutes early. 
  • Grab some refreshments in our lobby before heading in. 
  • If you have kids under the age of 5 follow the signs to the North side of our building to get them checked in. We take safety seriously, so all our volunteers are background checked and we will have our safety team making sure your kids are where they are supposed to be at all times. 
  • Beyond that, they are going to have an incredible time as they learn about Jesus in our kids ministry department. 
  • Once they are settled head back to the sanctuary (thats the big room where we do church) and grab a seat. 
  • When we get started we will do some singing, hear a message from the Bible about Jesus, and we will keep it as close to an hour as we can. 
  • Once you're done, if you have kids make sure you pick them up and before you go, grab a picture at our photo booth. 
  • After that, you are free to finish celebrating Christmas on your own and we look forward to seeing you the following week. 
  • If any of this makes you nervous, we will help you navigate it all when you get here!

Kids' Christmas Musical

Be sure to check out our kid's musical on December 14th because it’s a zoo out here! Bethlehem’s homes and inns may be bursting at the seams with travelers for the census, but because of the animals they brought with them, the stable is simply out of control. Camels, donkeys and goats up to the rafters! Even the normally-sleepy hillsides are now teeming with an abundance of sheep, and Bethlehem’s top temp agency must call on their most eager but often-inept family of workers, the Wooltons to step up and answer the call (temporary “staffing” takes on a whole new meaning!). What they expect to be an unglamorous assignment will soon put them face to face with the angel Gabriel, a sky-full of the Heavenly Host, and ultimately the Good Shepherd himself – Jesus!

Lights at FBH

Join us each evening for Hanford's biggest light show, and it is synced to music. Jump in your car and come watch the show with friends and family. It runs every night from December 5th through the 24th from 6-9pm. It's great for the kids and a wonderful way to get into the holiday spirit.
