Advent/Christmas Season
Hampton Baptist Church
Christmas Gifts That
Won’t Break
Church-wide Advent Study
Our Sunday School classes will go on a journey exploring the spirit of
Christmas. As we light the candles of our Advent wreath we will reflect
on the unbreakable gifts that God has given us: hope, love, joy and
peace. And remember God’s greatest gift, that comes to us as a baby and
leads us through all the days of our lives. This special four week study
includes wonderful stories, scriptures, and thoughts to warm our hearts
throughout the season.
