Christmas Desserts

CHRISTMAS DESSERTS

December

2, 3, & 4 at 7pm

Rooted in hope. Growing in grace. Flourishing right where God has planted you.

Christmas is a season filled with beauty, celebration, and gathering—but it can also be a season that fills up fast. Christmas Desserts is an invitation to slow down, pull up a chair, and make space for what matters most. Join women from across our community for an evening of beautiful Christmas spaces, decadent desserts, laughter, meaningful conversation, and an encouraging message from Wendy Speake.

Together, we’ll turn our attention back to Jesus—the One who roots us, fills us, and continues to grow something beautiful in and through our lives. Our hope is that you leave encouraged to notice where God is already at work and ready to flourish right where He has planted you—in your home, your friendships, your workplace, your neighborhood, and everywhere in between.

Host a
Table

Some of the most meaningful moments happen around a table—and Christmas Desserts wouldn’t happen without women willing to create those spaces. As a table host, you have the opportunity to make room for women to be welcomed, known, encouraged, and reminded that there is a place for them. You don’t have to create the perfect table. Simply create a space where people can gather.

As a host, you’ll:

  • Decorate your table with your own festive dishes, settings, and Christmas style.
  • Welcome the women seated at your table and help create a warm, inviting atmosphere.
  • Provide a favorite holiday dessert or baked good for your guests to share. Homemade or store-bought—both are welcome!

Invite women already in your world or leave seats open for women you haven’t met yet. You never know what God might grow from one simple invitation.

Sometimes helping someone flourish begins by simply making room for them at the table.

Individual
Tickets

There’s a place
for you at the
table.

You don’t have to host a table or already have a group to be part of Christmas Desserts. Come on your own, invite a friend, or gather a few women to join you. We’ll make sure you have a place to belong, connect, and be encouraged. Individual tickets will be available beginning November 1.
