Second Sunday in Advent at Faith

ADVENT 2 - THE PROPHECY
On this second Sunday in Advent we celebrate the Messiah prophecy foreshadowed in Genesis, Numbers and proclaimed by such Old Testament voices as the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Micah and Malachi, and repeated by John the Baptist.
Isaiah also foretold John’s coming. “A voice cries, ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.’”(Is40.3) John te Baptist was the voice in the desert when Jesus came to Bethany, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing. John, seeing him, saw the Spirit descend as a dove from Heaven and remain upon him, and he cried out, “And I have seen and borne witness that this is the son of God.” (Jn1.28-34)
Sunday school is at 9 a.m. and worship is at 10:30. 

UMW meets after the service in the fellowship hall 2016
