A Season of Wonder

Christmas Eve Offering

We’re excited to share that this year’s Christmas Eve Offering will benefit Hemlock Grove United Methodist Church in Dahlonega GA.

Hemlock Grove United Methodist Church, a Gainesville First UMC church plant, focuses on building bridges to Jesus by reaching those in Dahlonega without a faith community. This Christmas Eve, your financial support of the offering will help grow this ministry, create a welcoming space, and bring hope to those seeking connection and purpose. Together, we can share Christ's love in Dahlonega and continue Gainesville First's mission of building bridges to God and each other.

*Select the Christmas Eve Offering fund.

New Wine City is a trio comprised of Donna Weaver, Johnny Summers and Michelle Alexander. The Christmas Project Volume 1 features four timeless carols arranged in a way that features Donna, Johnny and Michelle’s unique style.

Let’s journey together to rediscover the awe of this season. May this musical offering from New Wine City and Gainesville First United Methodist Church bring you light, hope, and joy this Advent Season.
