Dear Friends,
At our church Memorial Committee meeting yesterday, I shared our worship staff mnemonic for remembering the order of Advent Sundays:
Helping People Join in Love (aka Hope, Peace, Joy, Love)!
This Sunday we will light the candle of peace. We all long for personal peace and pray for a world where violence and hatred end and peace reigns. How do we do that? Often I think of Mother Teresa’s famous words about peace.
"If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other."
We belong to each other and to God, and one way we show this is by worshipping together. This Sunday we invite you to join us as we worship at 8:00 a.m. in the Micah Chapel, 10:00 a.m. in the Meetinghouse and online.
The bulletin, large print bulletin and announcement slides are available on our website. You can watch any of our livestreamed or recorded services on our YouTube channel.
At the Memorial Committee meeting yesterday, after I shared the mnemonic for remembering the order of the Advent Sundays, one member said, “That’s what we do all year long!” Yes, friends, our call from God includes helping people join in love and reminding all people that we belong to each other.
With love,
Kate
Our First Church family of faith enjoys worshipping together, and we hope you will join us! On most Sundays our worship services are at 8:00 am in the Micah Chapel and 10:00 am in the Meetinghouse and livestreamed (and are also available for viewing later).
