Evanston Own It! Presents Hanging of the Greens December 2

Why do Christians use evergreens and poinsettias during Advent and Christmas? Why do we decorate our homes and sanctuaries with Christmas trees and ornaments? Come and join us on Fri., Dec. 2, 7 p.m., at Friendship Baptist Church, 2201 Foster St., for an evening worship service that will provide you with the answers to these questions while enriching your understanding of the Advent and Christmas season.

Evanston Own It! pastors, mass choir and liturgical dancers will participate in this beautiful service in preparation for a blessed season of love, hope, joy and peace found in the midst of community.
