*LIGHTING THE ADVENT CANDLE/OPENING SENTENCES
(8:30) Linda and Cliff Butler
(11:00) Brian, Susan, Monty, Bradley, and Helen Swafford
One:
All:
Today we relight the first three candles of the Advent
Wreath—the candles of hope, peace and joy—and now we
light the fourth candle of Advent. This is the candle of love.
Jesus taught and demonstrated the meaning of love.
Advent is a time to love as God loved us. God is love, so
let us exhibit love also.
And so, with the prophet Isaiah we pray:
Shower, O heavens, from above,
and let the skies rain down righteousness;
let the earth open, that salvation may spring up.
(Isaiah 45:8)
*HYMN 140

Rachel Vandersea (8:30)

1. How far is it to Bethlehem?
Not very far.
Shall we find the stable room
Lit by a star?
Can we see the little child,
Is He within?
If we lift the wooden latch
May we go in?
2. May we stroke the creatures there,
Oxen and sheep?
May we peek like them
And see Jesus asleep?
If we touch His tiny hand
Will he awake?
Will He know we’ve come so far
Just for His sake?
3. Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me for ever,
And love me, I pray;
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care,
And fit us for Heaven
To live with Thee there.

(The Magnificat)
1892-1983
My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in
God my Savior.
For He hath regarded the lowliness of His handmaiden.
For behold, from henceforth, all generations shall call me blessed.
For He that is mighty hath magnified me, and holy is His name.
And His mercy is on them that fear Him, throughout all
generations.
He hath showed strength with His arm, He hath scattered the
proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath
exalted the humble and meek.
He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich
He hath sent empty away.
He remembering His mercy hath hoplen his servant Israel
as He promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed forever.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.

pagers, and other electronic devices for the duration of worship.
SUNDAY MORNING CARE is available during both worship services for infants,
toddlers and preschool children, who will be welcomed by our trained nursery staff
and parent volunteers. Infants are welcome in the Sanctuary, but the parlor is a
wonderful place to calm an anxious baby. A special part of our service is the Time
with Children, when they are invited to join the pastor on the chancel steps for a
message that connects the worship of the day with their unique understanding.
WE WELCOME AND EMBRACE ALL CHILDREN and strive to provide skilled
caregivers to accommodate any special needs. Please contact the Staff Associate
for Children’s Ministries, Nancy Myer, at [email protected] or (919) 929-2102 if
there is anything we can do to enhance the Sunday morning experience for your
entire family.
