THIS SUNDAY AT SCUCC!

Worship In Person and Live-Streamed

The Third Sunday of Advent

​

Join us this Sunday, December 11, at 10am in our temporary Worship home at Refuge Church,

1901 Brantley Rd., Fort Myers

as we continue the sacred season of Advent.

Our theme for this year is, “The Family Christmas Tree”.

Over the course of the four Sundays of Advent, we will look at characters from the Bible who are considered to be part of Jesus’ “family tree”, exploring aspects of their stories and considering how their lives might speak to us during this Advent season as members of Jesus’ “spiritual family tree”.

This Sunday,  we will explore aspects of David’s faith through the lens of the scene from his life described in

2 Samuel 6:1-5 and 14-22.

We will also be blessed this Sunday with music from Dr. Mackenzie Albert.

 Our Spiritual Exploration unit continues

this Tuesday, December 13 from 7-8:15 pm.

“Oh, Baby!: Characters in the Advent and Christmas Stories”

Tuesdays: December 13 and 20 7:00-8:15pm on Zoom only.

Angels, shepherds and kings are just some of the characters we find in the Gospel stories surrounding Jesus’ birth. Over the course of these weeks, we will look at some of these characters, examine their words and actions, explore their role and importance from literary, theological and spiritual perspectives, and discuss how they might speak to us in our time and place.

Our mission is to love all people…grow in faith…and work toward God’s vision of justice, healing and joy. 
Our character is to reflect the teachings of Jesus Christ: acceptance, forgiveness, kindness, respect
(for each person, our islands and our earth), joy and love toward one another. You'll find us a positive,
non-judgmental place for you to worship, praise, rejoice and find the purpose our Maker has for
each of us, provided each week in a positive and uplifting message. 
Our church is one where you will be loved, accepted, supported, and affirmed regardless of your
age, class, ability, race, ethnicity, gender identification, or sexual orientation.  
No matter who you are, or where you are in your life journey, you are welcome here!
