christmas eve services

We would be thrilled if you, your family, and your friends could join us on Christmas Eve at the University United Methodist Church in Irvine. ​This is a special time of year when we celebrate the immense love God has bestowed upon us through his only son, Jesus Christ.


We know that the holiday season can be a bit crazy, so we have prepared three services that are sure to fit into your schedule.


For those who choose to honor the Sabbath, we will celebrate the 4th Sunday of Advent at 9:30 am by singing stories of hope.


Our 4 pm Family Friendly Service is perfect for families who need to travel or have other plans that make it impossible to attend the later service. The service will be filled with Christmas carols and singing. Children will be invited to participate in the Christmas story and the service will conclude with singing Silent Night.


Our 9 pm Service is an amazing opportunity to reflect on the mystery and beauty of the Christmas story through message and song. It will enable you to encounter the light of Christ and will conclude with a candlelight singing of Silent Night leading right up to the very first minute of Christmas Day.


We encourage you to make plans and invite your friends and family to join us on December 24th.
