December News

Advent calls us to prepare for and await the coming of the Savior. Being patient and discerning in advance of such a joyous occasion is not meant to be done in isolation. A serious contemplation of the body of Christ teaches us to work in concert with others to accomplish the mission of God in our community in every season. Materials for both Advent Calendars and an Advent Study Guide can be found on the table in the back of the sanctuary.
