Light of Christmas!

The Light Has Come—And You’re Invited

Advent is a season of radiant hope—a time to prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus, the Light of the World. It’s a time of anticipation and reflection, of recognizing our deep need for a Savior and rejoicing in the promise of God’s love made real at Christmas.

 

Wherever you find yourself this season—filled with joy, weighed down by grief, seeking peace, or simply longing for connection—you are welcome here. Join us at University United Methodist Church as we serve, celebrate, and worship together, welcoming the light of Christ into our lives and our community in Fort Worth.
