Calling
All Children and Teens!
Sunday
is the 4th Sunday of Advent, the day we begin preparing the sanctuary for
Christmas by greening the church. Children and teens, we need your help bringing
in the laurel roping and the poinsettias, hanging the bows on the pews, etc. And we will need you again at the 5:00 service
on Christmas Eve to help build the crèche. What a wonderful time of the year! Parents,
I hope you and your children will be able to attend these services as we
prepare our hearts for the coming of the Christ Child.

FOOD FOR
THOUGHT
Guardian
of the seasons,
keeper
of every time,
tune
us so to your rhythms
that
we may know
the
occasion for stillness
and
the moment for action.
May
we be so prepared
so
aware
so
awakened
in our
waiting
that
when you prompt us
into
motion,
our
hands may be your hands
and
our purposes
your
own.

See you
in Church!
