You’re Invited to Celebrate Christmas with Sutton Salvation Army Church
We invite you to join us in celebrating the true meaning of Christmas at Sutton Salvation Army Church. We are a community of HOPE and of welcome, and we believe that Christmas is a great time to share and show our community what this hope means for us all.
Christmas is a season full of hope – hope for good things, time with loved ones, and even snow! But the Christmas story offers something bigger than wishful thinking. It tells of ordinary people waiting, wondering and trusting, discovering that God’s promises come true. HOPE takes us on a journey through the Christmas story, exploring a hope that waits, dreams, arrives, comes close and goes out into the world.
We hope that this Christmas will be a season of love, joy and hope for you and your family.
