OSLC Thunder Bay | December 24 2024 | Christmas Eve |

Welcome to our recording of the 10:00 p.m. Holy Communion with Carols on Christmas Eve, December 24, 2024.
The worship outline (including links to videos of the music) and text of the sermon are posted at www.oursaviour... worship-outline-and-sermon, until Dec. 28.
Note: at the bottom of the video there is a 'CC' button. Pushing this activates the automatic captions. While the rendering isn't perfect, the words appear at the bottom of the screen when someone is speaking. As time permits, we add the words to the hymns to those captions. Due to logistical limitations the final version might appear some time after the initial publication of the video.
