Hello Friends,

Happy New Church Year, and blessed Advent.  This time of year, we can get bogged down in the rush towards Christmas, but don’t!  Advent is a 4 week period when we are supposed to reflectively and prayerfully wait for Jesus’ birth, or his 1st Advent.  The reading today is a prediction of the end of the world and Jesus’ return (i.e. the 2nd Advent).  So why do we read this?  Well, we live in the that in-between time and these texts give us clues about how to live while we wait.  Take a listen:

Luke 21:25-36, Advent 1, Year C, November 29, 2015

No sermon next week, the bishop is coming for his visitation and he gets to preach!

Thanks for stopping by,

Mo. Lauren
