We are in particular need of Advent this year, a season that invites us to pause and notice what is broken and wrong in our world and to long for Christ’s coming. Below are several ways we can enter into these seasons.
Worshipping Together: On Sundays, Nov 29, Dec 6 & 13, we will be preaching from Advent texts in the lectionary and be lead into lament and longing in our prayers. We will also have Advent Services in our Midweek Groups on Dec 2 & 16.
Worshipping at Home: Because we will not be able to worship together in our sanctuary, we are encouraged to bring the colors and symbols of Advent, including the Advent Wreath into our homes. Please see the Advent Guide and Advent Wreath Guide for guidance.
Gifts and Giving: We can give Alternative Gifts to support ministries and local organizations in place of gifts to others. We will have a form ready by Nov 29. We will also have a Christmas Offering Dec 27-Jan 3.
