1. Carols By Candlelight
It will be majestic!
♦ You will leave so glad you came!
♦ Your friends will thank you for inviting them!
 Most of all: It will be an experience of worship that anchors your soul to Christ.

2. A Monumental Milestone
The loan for the Deermeadows’ buildings constructed in 2009 has been PAID IN FULL!!! Thank you to everyone who has given faithfully over the last ten years to improve our campus and expand our ministries. A special debt of gratitude to our former pastor, Dr. Michael Riley, who had the courage and foresight to lead us in this direction during a time when the economy was weak but Christ's mission at Deermeadows continued to expand.

3. Hope & Healing
Join us next Sunday evening (Dec. 15th) at 6pm in the Loft for a poignant time of worship together. If the holidays are in any way bittersweet to you, this experience we share together will be meaningful to you.


Christmas Peace,
Pastor Larry

Music/Worship
Deermeadows is excited to welcome musical guests and classical crossover vocal group, Veritas for the annual Carols By Candlelight service this Sunday and Monday! Veritas is Andrew Goodwin and Lucas Scott Lawrence from Mobile, Alabama; James Berrian from Nashville, Tennessee; Jeff Anderson from Houston, Texas; and Jordan Johnson from Atlanta, Georgia.
Veritas has found themselves in some tremendous places, from multiple performances at Carnegie Hall to cruises in the Caribbean and Alaska, to their symphonic debut with the Miami Symphony. Since 2012, the sound of Veritas has captured the hearts of listeners across the globe. With backgrounds in opera, musical theater, rock, gospel, and pop, the five voices join together to create the “wall of sound” for which they have become known. From symphonies to theaters, churches, and civic events, audiences of every distinction attend Veritas concerts to experience a musical journey through the group’s artistic arrangements.
Most recently, Veritas released their third, full-length album, “Simply Veritas,” a collection of a cappella standards, patriotic tunes, and classic hymns dear to their hearts. That album, and more, will be available in the Narthex at the Veritas table after Carols By Candlelight.
