WE SAVED YOU A SEAT at Second-Ponce

The Birth of Jesus

And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed, everyone into their own city.

And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem (because he was of the house and lineage of David) to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger, because therewas no room for them in the inn.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, “Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the Babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.”

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Luke 2:1-14

OUR MISSION

Growing in Christ and community–sharing God’s love in the world.

What Matters to Us

Worship

Worship at Second-Ponce offers the gifts of music, prayer, message and scripture. Our hope is that the depth of our worship both honors God and engages our own intellect and curiosity. Here, we value everyone’s faith expression in a spirit of hospitality and truth.
Community

We believe God wants us to genuinely care for one another, and we are deliberate in making sure everyone feels connected to this church family. Everything we do, be it worship, mission service, small group study or fellowship, intentionally builds community with each other and with God.

Missions

By combining partnerships and hands-on service, Second-Ponce seeks to “take the whole gospel to the whole person,” as Jesus demonstrated during his ministry on earth. We aim to offer hope and model love through deep and long-term connections to local and global missions organizations.
Discipleship

We are a Christ-centered church family equipping people to discover God’s call for their lives. Through intentional prayer, scripture study, mission and fellowship, we continue our development as followers of Christ.
