Advent 2023

    The Advent season will soon be upon us. This Advent season we will turn our attention to the characters found in the Nativity story. But these are not fictional characters with two-dimensional stories. They are not shiny pieces in our nativity sets, polished and without blemish. They are very real human beings with very real stories of heartache and joy, of struggle and celebration, and everything in between.

Worship with us!

Sunday mornings at 10:30 am

Join us in person and online on Sunday mornings for worship as we prepare our hearts for the coming Messiah. We will light our Advent candles, have special music, and walk alongside the characters of the nativity as we prepare for Christ’s birth.

Service of Consolation, December 3 at 6 pm

Join us in worship for our Service of Consolation on December 3 at 6 pm.  For many, the holiday season is full of grand celebrations and fun festivities. For others, however, the holidays comprise a difficult season saturated with pain and heartache. Perhaps the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, a messy divorce, or an unexpected life change has created a deep wound. We will lift our pain up to God, asking for healing and consolation in these days.

Homeless Persons Memorial Service:

Join us at 1 pm on December 21 in the parking lot of Second Place (721 S. Cumberland St.) to remember and honor our homeless friends who have died this year. All are welcome and attendees are invited to bring socks and gloves for our homeless neighbors.

Christmas Eve Worship, 4 pm

We are looking forward to worshiping together on Christmas Eve at 4 pm. This will be a meaningful time of singing, candlelight, and reflection as we celebrate Christ’s birth. (We welcome all ages and noises as families worship together. Childcare will not be provided.)

Reflect with us!

Advent Blogs

Each week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays we will release an Advent blog written by a church member. These blogs features reflections of the very real “characters” who make up our own congregation. You can find these blogs linked on our social media and on our website.

ADVENTure, November 29, 5:45 pm

Join us on November 29 in the Fellowship Hall at 5:45 pm for a special intergenerational ADVENTure! Together, we will explore the themes of Advent and ways we can engage the season in a meaningful way. This evening is open for all ages and will offer a variety of stations for all types of learners that you can work through at your own pace. 

Serve with us!

CBF Offering for Global Missions

Every year during Advent we collect the CBF Offering for Global Missions. This offering is vital to the presence of CBF Field personnel around the world. This year our goal is $7,000. You can mail a check to the church or by giving online and selecting the CBF Global Missions Offering option.

Salvation Army Bell Ringers

Sign up to ring the Salvation Army Bell at the Dillards West Door in Park Plaza and at the J C Penney Store in Little Rock. Did you know that 2BC bell ringers have raised over $225,000 since 2003?! Join us again this year as we seek to serve our community.
