First Sunday of Advent

Faith Church celebrates the first Sunday of Advent this week.  We'll be lighting the Candle of Light.

ADVENT 1 - FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT

The first candle on the Advent wreath leaps into light. The Church Year begins.

This is a holy season, the time when Christians prepare their minds and hearts to receive anew god’s greatest gift.

Slowly the darkness of fear recedes. Slowly the shadows of sin fall back. The light that is to illumine our night is ahead. In worship prayer and thanksgiving we prepare ourselves. All Christendom waits in joyful expectation.

The Son of God will come. Through him we will know the Father. Light and love will reign!

Rev. Eldon Reich will be preaching, in the absence of Rev. Jon Damaska, in the absence of Pastor Jack.
Sunday school starts at 9 a.m. and worship is at 10:30.

This week, prayer group meets at noon Wednesday. UMW meets Sunday after church in the fellowship hall.
