*GREETING
As Mary entered the house of Zechariah and Elizabeth,
the child in Elizabeth’s womb leaped for joy!
And as we enter your house today, O God,
our hearts leap for joy just thinking of our Savior’s birth.
Blessed is Mary among women,
and blessed is the fruit of her womb.
And blessed are we, O God,
to be called into the salvation of Mary’s child.

*LIGHTING THE ADVENT CANDLE
(8:30)
(11:00)
Zack & Courtney Bolen with Emily & Lauren
Ray & Shannon Oliveira with Callie & Anna
We have lit three candles—for hope, for peace, and for joy. Today we light
the fourth candle—the candle of love. With this flame, we signify the love
of God that surrounds and fills us at all times, but that we recognize in a
special way in the Christmas story. There is no greater power than love. It is
stronger than rulers and empires, stronger than grief or despair, stronger
even than death. We love, as God loves us.
(Four candles are lit.) “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel”
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.
Loving God, we open ourselves to you this Christmas season.
As these candles are lit, light our lives with your imagination.
Show us the creative power of hope.
Teach us the peace that comes from justice.
Fill us with the kind of joy that cannot be contained,
but must be shared.
Magnify your love within us.
Prepare our hearts to be transformed by you,
that we may walk in the light of Christ. Amen.
Depart in peace, and take with you the certain knowledge
that God is always coming into the world.
We will seek God, not in a long ago stable or ancient manger,
but in the people we meet and the depths of our own hearts.

We are Better Together…because God is with us!

PROCLAMATION OF THE WORD
TIME WITH YOUNG DISCIPLES
Laurie Perry
Micah 5:2-5a
But you, O Bethlehem of Ephrathah, who are one of the little clans of
Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to rule in Israel, whose
origin is from of old, from ancient days. Therefore he shall give them up
until the time when she who is in labor has brought forth; then the rest of
his kindred shall return to the people of Israel. And he shall stand and feed
his flock in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord
his God. And they shall live secure, for now he shall be great to the ends of
the earth; and he shall be the one of peace.
ANTHEM
*HYMN
He shall feed his flock like a shepherd:
and he shall gather the lambs with his arm,
and carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are young.
Come unto him, all ye that labor, come unto him, that are heavy laden,
and he will give you rest.
Take his yoke upon you, and learn of him;
for he is meek and lowly of heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Luke 1:39-55
In those days Mary set out and went with haste to a Judean town in the
hill country, where she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leaped in her womb.
And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and exclaimed with a loud
cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
And why has this happened to me, that the mother of my Lord comes to
me? For as soon as I heard the sound of your greeting, the child in my
womb leaped for joy. And blessed is she who believed that there would be a
fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord.” And Mary said, “My
soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has
looked with favor on the lowliness of his servant. Surely, from now on all
generations will call me blessed; for the Mighty One has done great things
for me, and holy is his name. His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation. He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered
the proud in the thoughts of their hearts. He has brought down the powerful
from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly; he has filled the hungry with
good things, and sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy, according to the promise he made to our ancestors, to Abraham and to his descendants forever.”

“The Waiting Room”
In God’s waiting room, we learn to expect mystery
and surprise in the face of common days. The
church’s calendar is made up of two kinds of time:
holy time and ordinary time. Mary’s days were so
ordinary in some ways and so miraculous in other
ways. That always seems to be the way God hands
life to us, a mixture of the marvelous and the mundane.

Parking with Consideration
Please be a good neighbor as you park in the neighborhood around the church.
Please do not block driveways or park too close to street corners.
Calling All Shepherds
To receive a 2013 grant from our Outreach Pathway, a local organization
needs to be represented by a “Shepherd” who is a member of Hayes Barton UMC.
Shepherds complete a brief grant application that is reviewed and decided on by
the Outreach committee. Do you support an organization that you would like the
Outreach Pathway to support financially and/or by soliciting volunteers from
among the HBUMC membership? If so, please apply to become a Shepherd for
that organization by completing a Shepherd’s Application, which is available at
www.hbumc.org as well as at the church’s reception desk.
This year, the Outreach Pathway is emphasizing the need to assist organizations devoted to meeting basic human needs. HBUMC already is active in addressing these needs through support to many local agencies, including the InterFaith Food Shuttle, Urban Ministries, WIHN, StepUp Ministries, Meals on Wheels
and others. We also maintain our own Mustard Seed Garden to help feed the hungry in Raleigh, and support missionaries and organizations overseas who work to
feed, clothe and house children and adults in desperate need.
The deadline for returning completed applications is January 25, 2013. Completed applications may be placed in the Missions mailbox at the church or mailed
to the address that is on the application. Depending on how familiar we are with
the organization you want to sponsor, we may invite you to provide a brief presentation to the Outreach committee.
Is the Good Shepherd calling you to be a Shepherd to one of the many wonderful human service agencies in this area seeking support from our church? If so,
let us hear from you. Please contact Bruce Oland at [email protected] or 919877-0925 if you have any questions.
MISSION: HB is sending an adult construction team to Guatemala City. It will work
with Annette Witte and the Vida Joven (Young Life) staff, serving for the 5th year in
the ministry that Brady Greene oversaw in the El Recuerdo neighborhood.
DATES: Depart February 17 and return February 24, 2013
PROJECT: Working with kids that participate in “Vida Joven” and repairing/
reconstructing homes in a poor, urban section of Guatemala City
A blog on ministry experiences can be found at:
annetteinguatemala.wordpress.com
Much of the work will be physically demanding; however, most are able to contribute regardless of age, strength or stamina, as “work” is only part of the mission
experience. Typical daily tasks include interacting with community members and
children, building walls and foundations, painting, pouring concrete, woodwork,
landscaping, roofing, etc. Guatemala is a good “next step” in mission. Depending
on the missioner, it may not be the best first-mission experience.
REQUIREMENTS/COSTS: US Passport required. A $150 non-refundable deposit
and completed application. ($350 more will be required prior to 2/1/13.) Full participation in all fundraisers. Missioners should also be in general good health, agree
to participate in an orientation / team retreat, and most of all … be flexible!
QUESTIONS: Nelson Brugh, 302-5055 or [email protected]; Mike Trexler, 2718056 or [email protected]; Tim Price, 833-0139 or [email protected]

Calling All Shepherds
To receive a 2013 grant from our Outreach Pathway, a local organization
needs to be represented by a “Shepherd” who is a member of Hayes Barton UMC.
Shepherds complete a brief grant application that is reviewed and decided on by
the Outreach committee. Do you support an organization that you would like the
Outreach Pathway to support financially and/or by soliciting volunteers from
among the HBUMC membership? If so, please apply to become a Shepherd for
that organization by completing a Shepherd’s Application, which is available at
www.hbumc.org as well as at the church’s reception desk.
This year, the Outreach Pathway is emphasizing the need to assist organizations devoted to meeting basic human needs. HBUMC already is active in addressing these needs through support to many local agencies, including the InterFaith Food Shuttle, Urban Ministries, WIHN, StepUp Ministries, Meals on Wheels
and others. We also maintain our own Mustard Seed Garden to help feed the hungry in Raleigh, and support missionaries and organizations overseas who work to
feed, clothe and house children and adults in desperate need.
The deadline for returning completed applications is January 25, 2013. Completed applications may be placed in the Missions mailbox at the church or mailed
to the address that is on the application. Depending on how familiar we are with
the organization you want to sponsor, we may invite you to provide a brief presentation to the Outreach committee.
Is the Good Shepherd calling you to be a Shepherd to one of the many wonderful human service agencies in this area seeking support from our church? If so,
let us hear from you. Please contact Bruce Oland at [email protected] or 919877-0925 if you have any questions.
MISSION: HB is sending an adult construction team to Guatemala City. It will work
with Annette Witte and the Vida Joven (Young Life) staff, serving for the 5th year in
the ministry that Brady Greene oversaw in the El Recuerdo neighborhood.
DATES: Depart February 17 and return February 24, 2013
PROJECT: Working with kids that participate in “Vida Joven” and repairing/
reconstructing homes in a poor, urban section of Guatemala City
A blog on ministry experiences can be found at:
annetteinguatemala.wordpress.com
Much of the work will be physically demanding; however, most are able to contribute regardless of age, strength or stamina, as “work” is only part of the mission
experience. Typical daily tasks include interacting with community members and
children, building walls and foundations, painting, pouring concrete, woodwork,
landscaping, roofing, etc. Guatemala is a good “next step” in mission. Depending
on the missioner, it may not be the best first-mission experience.
REQUIREMENTS/COSTS: US Passport required. A $150 non-refundable deposit
and completed application. ($350 more will be required prior to 2/1/13.) Full participation in all fundraisers. Missioners should also be in general good health, agree
to participate in an orientation / team retreat, and most of all … be flexible!
