Advent Blessings

Advent Blessings

A month, 4 weeks, of preparing ourselves, our hearts, our minds for Jesus
Daily we pray and listen, for we do not know when Jesus will come again
Very lucky are we, that we can be the story of love and peace
Every day we open our hearts, souls, and minds to listen to and for God
Now is the time to be ready, because the Prince of Peace is coming
Time is at hand, for a little child will lead, the lion, the lamb together

Behold, the Spirit of the Lord is upon us to bring good news to the poor
Love and blessings to all
Everyone, not just some, but all are welcome and loved at Grace UCC
Sing praises of Joy and Peace, Hope and Love this Advent/Christmas
Sing praises to God, for a child has been born for us
In the fields, there were shepherds….
Now the shepherds heard the angels of “Do not be afraid”,
Go and spread the Good News… Christ is born in Bethlehem…

Thank you for the blessings and love that you have shown me this year. As we begin a new Church year, we will grow and be challenged by God, together… As we worship and work together we will be blessed, we will love and live into our mission,
Love, Leadership, Fun/Joy, Faith, Welcoming community
Experiencing God’s grace, Seeking God’s mission, Sharing God’s love…

Thank you to each one of you for serving our God in the way that you do. AJ and Andy join me in sharing the peace of God that passes all understanding..

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given;
and the government will be upon his shoulder,
and his name will be called
“Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6
