The link for this week's live-streamed service is here..
The choir anthem on Sunday contained the line "Jesus is coming, prepare!" A crew of volunteers had prepared the sanctuary on Saturday. The Advent Wreath was in place, ready for the lighting of the first Advent Candle on Sunday.
The tree was up and decorated. Lights shone along the walls.
Nativity scenes graced the narthex and the hall as well as the sanctuary.
Angels and sheep statues marched along the upper window sills.
Candles and poinsettias added the festive touch to the sanctuary.
The front door announced the season.
And the candles and messages of Advent shone from the roof!
Decorating the sanctuary takes many hands.
And lots of laughter
I
And some muscle and elbow grease
And patience!
When I got home the voice on the radio was talking about Advent as a season of waiting and listening and anticipation. My wish is that, even when we are all super busy with the preparations for the "holiday season," we find time to Prepare the Way of the Lord!
