Christmas & Advent
“Almighty God, you have given your only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him, and to be born [this day] of a pure virgin: Grant that we, who have been born again and made your children by adoption and grace, may daily be renewed by your Holy Spirit; through our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom with you and the same Spirit be honor and glory, now and for ever. Amen.”

Christmas Poinsettia Memorials & Thanksgivings
Submission Deadline: Form is now closed.
If you would like to order a poinsettia for Christmas Eve in memory of or in thanksgiving of a beloved family member or friend, GHTC offers a few different ways to submit. To submit in-person, please fill out an Offering Envelope found on either Connect Table or the pew backs, with the names of those you are remembering, and place it in the offering plate or give it to clergy. You may also pay digitally in two ways; by calling Financial Administrator Kathy Schultheis in the Parish Office at (804) 359-5628 x14 or by visiting us online at ghtc.org/flowers. The cost is whatever you would like to contribute. The memorials will be printed in the Christmas Eve bulletins.
