MORE THAN CHRISTMAS

by | Dec 24, 2023 | Viva Christmas

Welcome to VIVA CHURCH’s enchanting Sunday service, marking the advent of the VIVA CHRISTMAS season with our esteemed lead pastor, Frank Seixas! Join us for an inspiring sermon titled “MORE THAN CHRISTMAS.” Pastor Frank will delve into the profound significance of the Christmas narrative, as illustrated in Luke 2:4-7, taking us beyond the traditional understanding of the season.

In the heart of the message, we’ll explore the multifaceted nature of Jesus, transcending the image of a baby in a manger. Drawing from Matthew 16:13-20, we’ll discover that Jesus is more than a prophet—he is the Christ, the Son of the living God. The sermon will unravel the transformative power Jesus brings, offering not just good principles, but empowerment, hope, healing, and forgiveness.

As we reason together through scriptures like Isaiah 1:18, Isaiah 59:1-2, 1 Peter 3:18, and Romans 3:21-23, we’ll understand that Jesus is more than a good planner with good intentions; He executes His plans. Don’t miss this opportunity to go deeper into the true essence of Christmas. Join us at VIVA CHURCH, where we celebrate a Christ who is MORE, inviting you to experience His transformative power in your life. See you there!

  • Pastor Frank Seixas

    I am Frank the co-lead Pastor and with my wife Chris are the founders of VIVA Church in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. I first came to Canada in 1987, following God’s call to permanently move from Brazil to Canada. In August 1992, I started VIVA Church. In January 1994, I married Chris, and in 1996, I graduated from the Nazarene Bible College of Canada. Later I was awarded Doctor of Divinity (DDiv) from Canada Christian College in 2022.

    With a vision to reach people for Jesus, VIVA Church has grown to become a positive influence for the Kingdom, not only in Oshawa but also by planting churches internationally in countries like Cambodia and Uganda. Beyond our work at the local church, I (Frank) serve the body of Christ on the boards of other ministries and churches, and I am part of the Apostolic Ministry of MFI-Canada. I also travel to speak at conferences and many churches around the world.

    Chris and I have dedicated more than 30 years to serving at VIVA Church, witnessing the salvation and growth of many. We have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Leticia, our youngest, and Gabriella, our oldest, who is married to Matheus.
