Scripture Lesson:
Romans 1:1-7
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the
gospel of God, which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the
holy scriptures, the gospel concerning his Son, who was descended from
David according to the flesh and was declared to be Son of God with
power according to the spirit of holiness by resurrection from the dead,
Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for the
sake of his name, including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus
Christ, To all God’s beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace
to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
This is the word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Paul reminds us of the importance of being called to the cause of Jesus
Christ. Who are those who are set apart? Make no mistake…it is all of us!
We are the family of God. The grace brought (and bought) for us in God’s
child, our savior, brings us to wholeness, not once a year, but 24/7. A
baby in a manger, a child nurtured by loving parents, a youth with vision
and hope, an adult with fears of the future are all welcome in God’s amazing presence. In Sierra Leone, with 50 percent of the population being 15
years of age and younger, being God’s family brings hope for the future.
In the language of the Christians in Sierra Leone: God dei (God provides)!
Come and experience the wonder of God’s presence.
We are your family!
Our God has loved us forever without beginning or end.
Our hearts are open to receive love, peace, and healing.
Share God’s love with all you meet.
We are ready to serve.
May the God of hope fill us with all joy and peace in believing,
so that we may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

“Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus”
Come to earth to taste our sadness, he whose glories knew no end;
by his life he brings us gladness, our Redeemer, Shepherd, Friend.
Leaving riches without number, born within a cattle stall;
this the everlasting wonder, Christ was born the Lord of all.
Born Thy people to deliver, born a child, and yet a King,
born to reign in us forever, now Thy gracious kingdom bring.
By Thine own eternal Spirit rule in all our hearts alone;
by Thine own sufficient merit, raise us to Thy glorious throne.
LATECOMERS MAY BE SEATED NOW.
TIME WITH YOUNG DISCIPLES

(11:00 - Children, ages 2-5/K, may go to Extended Session.)
Matthew 1:18-25
Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah took place in this way. When his mother
Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found
to be with child from the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man
and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to dismiss her quietly. But
just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a
dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your
wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son,
and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” All
this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
“Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel,” which means, “God is with us.” When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did
as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took her as his wife, but had no
marital relations with her until she had borne a son; and he named him Jesus.

Arr. Wilberg
(choir sings verses 1 & 2, all sing verses 3 & 4; stand as directed)
Come, Thou long-expected Jesus, born to set Thy people free;
from our fears and sins release us; let us find our rest in Thee.
Israel’s strength and consolation, hope of all the earth Thou art;
dear desire of every nation, joy of every longing heart.
Joy to those who long to see thee, Dayspring from on high, appear;
come, thou promised Rod of Jesse, of thy birth we long to hear!
O’er the hills the angels singing news, glad tidings of a birth;
“Go to him, your praises bringing; Christ the Lord has come to earth.”
What can I give him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
Yet what I can I give him; give my heart.

“Revealed in the Names”
Two names are given to the baby who is to be born,
Emmanuel and Jesus. They mean that God is with us
and that God saves us. The first name points to God’s
purpose for creation, and the second to the fact that
God accomplishes that purpose is spite of human sin.
This is the truth that makes holiday miracles possible
in spite of holiday disasters.
Methodist Home for Children
Christmas Eve Services
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! As a result of the efforts of volunteers
in our congregation, many of the older children sponsored by the
Methodist Home for Children will have a much merrier and “more
fashionable!” Christmas! The gift cards have been delivered to the
precious families and Christmas morning will be blessed with
HBUMC love! Thank you so much for the support of this important
community organization throughout the year. I hope you will consider attending the “Winter’s Tale” Gala on January 25 at the Raleigh Convention Center. This is a night of music, dining, silent and live auctions,
and best of all, a great opportunity to learn more about the families served by
MHC. This year’s speaker, Katie Beers, will share her personal experiences of
survival and recovery through the Foster Home process. Katie’s bestseller, Buried
Memories, is available in bookstores. HBUMC members have given generously of
time and energy to the largest fundraiser sponsored by MHC. Gala chairpersons
during the past ten years have included Laurie Barwick, Perri Anderson, Melanie
Crockett, Tracy Vinson, Mary June Jones, Susan Kane, Jackie Abbott, and Jennie
Hayman. To learn more about the Gala, please visit awinterstale.org or contact
Jennifer Cooper at [email protected] or 919-754–3625. Again, thank you for allowing the light of Christ to shine through us!
Jackie Abbott, MHC Shepherd for HBUMC
Tuesday, December 24, at 3, 5, 7 & 11 pm
Please join us for one of our four worship services on this holy night. The 3 & 5 pm
services are family-friendly services. Communion will be served at all four services. Childcare (0-5/K) will be offered at 3, 5 & 7 pm. There will be a live nativity
for all services with luminary.
“Welcome!” “Good Morning!” “So glad you’re here!”
Simple words, yet so meaningful to those who walk thru the church doors on
Sunday morning. Each Sunday, greeters extend a warm welcome to encourage
all who gather to worship. As a member of HBUMC, I would like you to prayerfully consider serving as a “Greeter.” Please consider committing to 2 Sundays/
year when you are already at HB. Each time you serve will require 30 minutes or
less - but your service is critical to establishing our welcoming, accepting, and
inviting environment. Here is what a Greeter does:
1. Meets people as they enter the church.
2. Greets them with a smile and a friendly, “Good morning.”
3. Helps people find answers to any questions they have.
4. Ensures visitors aren’t lost in the shuffle.
