Our Christmas Eve-Eve service has become one of the most loved traditions at The Connect Church. It didn’t start as a creative idea—it began out of necessity! When our church first met in a school, the janitor’s union didn’t allow staff to work on Christmas Eve, so we held our Christmas service on December 23rd instead.

What began as a scheduling workaround has grown into a truly meaningful annual tradition. Christmas Eve-Eve gives families and friends a chance to slow down before the busyness of Christmas Eve, worship together, and invite others who might be unavailable on the 24th. For many, it has become a highlight of the season—a joy-filled, reflective service that helps us center our hearts on Jesus.

Most people are free on the 23rd, making it a great opportunity to bring someone with you. We hope you’ll join us and experience why this unique tradition continues to be such a special part of our church family’s Christmas celebration.

Yes! We will have special Connect Kids and Youth Christmas Eve-Eve services available for children ages 3 months through 8th grade. Our teams are preparing a fun, meaningful, and age-appropriate Christmas experience for your child.

Please plan to arrive a little early to check your child(ren) in at the Check-In Kiosk.

If you’re joining us for the first time, we encourage you to give yourself a few extra minutes so we can help you create a check-in profile and get your family settled.

No, we will not be holding a service on Sunday, December 21. We’re encouraging everyone to enjoy that time with family and to come refreshed and ready for our Christmas Eve-Eve service on December 23. It’s going to be an amazing evening, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

We have a pretty simple philosophy when it comes to our 'dress code': Come as you are!
