Blessings

 

Taking this picture brought to mind that there is nothing quite like a small little church and a small little town, and I have always felt it to be such a blessing to have been born and raised in both.  ~Mindy

Old churches must not simply stand as monuments to the past but as spiritual grandparents that have invested in the future by passing on their life to others and releasing their offspring to form new congregations. ~ unknown

 Good Morning!

 

 

Incarnation

First Sunday of Advent

Jesus is King

 

Sermon:  "Jesus is King"

Hymns:

 “Joy To The World”

Responsive Reading: Jesus is King

 “O Little Town Of Bethlehem”

Advent Candle: Candle of Preparation

Special Music: "King of Kings" by Hillsong Worship

King of Kings Lyrics 

 In the darkness we were waiting, without hope, without light

 'Til from Heaven You came running, there was mercy in Your eyes 

To fulfill the law and prophets, to a virgin came the word

 From a throne of endless glory, to a cradle in the dirt

 Chorus: Praise the Father, praise the Son, praise the Spirit, three in 

 one, God of glory, Majesty, praise forever to the King of Kings 

To reveal the kingdom coming, and to reconcile the lost 

To redeem the whole creation, you did not despise the cross 

For even in your suffering, you saw to the other side

 Knowing this was our salvation, Jesus for our sake you died

 Chorus

 And the morning that You rose, all of Heaven held its breath

 'Til that stone was moved for good, 

For the Lamb had conquered death 

And the dead rose from their tombs, and the angels stood in awe

 For the souls of all who'd come, to the Father are restored

 And the church of Christ was born, then the Spirit lit the flame

 Now this gospel truth of old, shall not kneel, shall not faint

 By His blood and in His name, in His freedom I am free

 For the love of Jesus Christ, Who has resurrected me

 Chorus, Praise forever to the King of Kings

 

 “O Come All Ye Faithful”

Benediction
