Local church brings in holiday with prayer

JACKSON, Tenn. — SoulQuest church held their annual Christmas Eve service for visitors and members to bring in the Christmas holiday.

“We just have a full blown worship experience and we want people to know about Jesus, just like we preached today,” said SoulQuest Pastor, Ronnie Coleman. 

Coleman says this service is held to remind people the reason for the season.

“That’s what this season is all about for us. It’s not just Christmas. It’s Christmas and it’s Easter and its everything. Because it all encompasses into one message,” Coleman said.

Visitors got to enjoy several musical numbers and a message about the birth of Christ.

“Jesus came to us and lived that sinless life and grew up and died on the cross for our sins. So we want to deliver that message as often as we possibly can,” Coleman said. 

Although you may have already unwrapped those gifts, Coleman says the word is one of the best gifts that you can receive. 

“People are just looking for hope. You know, we live in a world that’s very, it’s tough right now, and so the message of Christmas is all about hope. So that’s what we’re trying to deliver,” Coleman said.
