Lent
Advent is a season of waiting. Named after the Latin word adventus, meaning “coming,” Advent occurs the 4 weeks leading up to Christmas and encourages us to prepare for the coming of Jesus Christ, God With Us, into the world. Scroll through this page to learn about all the upcoming opportunities to celebrate the Advent season at City Point UMC. May you experience the hope, peace, joy, and love of Christ our Lord this Advent and Christmas season.
​
This year, Advent begins on November 30, 2025.
