Operation: Christmas Child
It's time for our annual Operation Christmas Child shoebox collection! Each year, Candlelight partners with Samaritan's Purse to share the love of Jesus with children around the world through gift-filled shoeboxes.
Pick up a shoebox in the lobby, fill it with toys, school supplies, hygiene items, and other gifts, and return it to Candlelight by Sunday, November 15.
A small box can make a big difference in a child's life, bringing joy, hope, and the opportunity to hear the Gospel.
Next Sunday Series Module: Mission Ready
The Sunday Series continues with its second module, The Battle for Marriage, part of Pastor Jason Murray's Mission Ready: Biblical Answers for Modern Battles series.
God designed marriage to last a lifetime, but building a marriage that endures takes more than good intentions. With divorce affecting so many families and even lasting marriages facing significant struggles, it's worth taking a closer look at God's design for this lifelong covenant.
Pastor Jason will explore the challenges couples face throughout every stage of marriage, from the assumptions we bring into relationships to navigating children, careers, conflict, personal growth, and life's most difficult circumstances.
Whether you're single, preparing for marriage, newly married, or have been married for decades, this nine-week series will offer biblical insight into building, strengthening, and sustaining a marriage that lasts.
Weekly Topics
- Nov 1 Family of origin issues: what assumptions did we bring?
- Nov 8 Dating vs courtship: were we purposeful?
- Nov 15 Growth as individuals vs as a couple: we
- Nov 22 Life changes: kids
- Nov 29 Life changes: jobs/careers
- Dec 6 Life changes: things that might and do end marriages

Free Movie Screening: The Last Stand
Sunday, November 1, 2026
FREE MOVIE SCREENING: THE LAST STAND
Join Candlelight at Hayden Discount Cinema for one of two free screenings of The Last Stand: Christ or Chaos – The War for the West, a powerful new documentary from Seth Gruber and the White Rose Resistance.
Tracing 2,000 years of history, The Last Stand explores how the early Church confronted paganism, defended the vulnerable, and transformed a culture hostile to biblical truth. It's a compelling call for Christians to recognize the challenges of our time and boldly stand for biblical truth.
Admission at Hayden Discount Cinema is free for these screenings, but advance online reservations are required. No walk-ins will be admitted. Seating is limited; click below to reserve your seats! Please limit tickets to your immediate family and direct friends, neighbors, and other guests to reserve their own tickets.
