As a child one of my favorite ‘Advent Traditions’ was — getting to play with the figures of our family Nativity Scene. I loved walking the shepherds along, giving the camels the best view, and putting the baby Jesus in the center of it all. I am thankful that our scene wasn’t too glass, china-like, or fragile to keep my sister and I from handling. Or maybe it was, but my parents were wise enough to let us become a part of the story through our play.
This Advent season our theme is “Come Celebrate Jesus!” It is my hope that in the weeks leading to the birthday of Christ, you will prepare yourselves for Christmas by Celebrating Jesus. In worship we will hear of the historic and prophetic times of ancient Israel, desperate for a new king. In worship we will call out in prayer for the whole world to know of the salvation that the Christ Child promised. In worship we will harmonize as we lift our voices in praise and roclamation. IN WORSHIP. Come Celebrate Jesus.
See you in church.
