Fleetwood Christian Reformed Church invites you to join us for the advent series on "Imaging Tomorrow, Living with Isaiah in Advent and Christmas" where we are invited to sit where Isaiah sat. When we read his book the mood is fast changing but by evoking images of what God can and will do, Isaiah keeps challenging us to think differently. Beginning with the mountain and continuing with a branch, a desert, a sign, and a child, the prophet grants us glimpses of tomorrow. All these images are multicolured in their style and multidimensional in their meaning. In living with Isaiah during this special season, we hope that his familiar images will help us to trust that God keeps His Word and fulfills His promise.
You are invited to join us for both morning and evening services
