If you are new to the church scene, here are some reasons why we attend church on Christmas Eve:

1. Spiritual Reflection: Many attend Christmas Eve services as a way to reflect on the significance of Christmas, commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ.

2. Tradition: Christmas Eve services often carry deep-rooted traditions for families and communities. It's a time-honored practice for many to attend a service as part of their holiday traditions. This is a great time to start a new tradition! Positive yearly social traditions are psychologically grounding and have many benefits for our well being.

3. Community and Togetherness: Christmas Eve services provide an opportunity for people to come together with family, friends, and their community. It's a time to share in the joy of the season and connect with others.

4. Celebration of the Season: Attendees often appreciate the festive atmosphere, with seasonal music, and decorations creating a celebratory mood. It's a way to immerse oneself in the holiday spirit.

5. Finding Comfort and Peace: For some, the Christmas season can be emotionally charged. Attending a service may offer a sense of comfort, peace, and solace, providing a reflective space during a bustling time.

6. Remembrance and Gratitude: Christmas Eve services often include moments of reflection on the year, fostering gratitude for blessings and remembering loved ones who have passed away. It can be a time to appreciate the good that is present in one's life.

7. Reconnection with Faith: For those who may not regularly attend religious services, Christmas Eve can serve as a reconnection with faith, offering a welcoming environment for spiritual exploration.

In essence, Christmas Eve services serve as a communal and reflective experience, catering to a variety of emotional, spiritual, and traditional needs during the holiday season.
