We now have reached our last Sunday in our journey of Advent. I came across an interesting online video that I thought you might enjoy. The video makes a point that advent calls into question the materialism that grips the hearts of us this time of year. If you have a few minutes I encourage you to watch it.
The link is on the blog for this Sunday. If you want please share a comment on the blog about it.
My sermon this Sunday is about the mystery of the incarnation and how this mystery of Christ is the source of the true joy of this season. I hope that you enjoy it.
The big news is our upcoming services on Christmas Eve. Remember the times:
4:00 family service with communion. We will be involving the children who attend in the service. This should be a lot of fun
7:30 Communion with candlelight and will feature our Spirit of Peace musicians and vocalists. We thank them for sharing their service to our community
11:00 Communion with candlelight and will feature our choir and musicians with a special violinist. We thank them also for their service to our community.
We should have a special evening and I hope you can attend one of the services.
Remember also that we are going to have one service on Dec 28 at 10:00. There will be no Sunday School or communion. We will also be celebrating the baptism of Kara Grace Gregory this morning.
We will begin our annual stewardship appeal on January 4. Please be sure to pick up your packet in the narthex on that Sunday. We will end the appeal on Jan 25 with a dinner and a talent show.
Also note that in January we have moved the Worship Workshop to Sunday, Jan 18 after the 11:00. Service. The workshop is open to anyone interested in improving our worship life at Peace. We will have lunch and should be done by 3:00. This is a great opportunity to get involved in your church. We will be planning our lent and Easter services. We will also be discussing our current liturgies and worship practices.
