Advent Begins

This Sunday begins the season of Advent when we anticipate the birth of the promised Savior, Jesus. Church members place poinsettias in the church each year during December in memory or honor of loved ones, or in honor of the Lord.

Our Lessons and Carols Service will be on Sunday, December 20th, at 6:00 p.m. We ask that you wear a mask while inside our building, and maintain social distancing. We hope you'll join us!

 "There shall a star come out of Jacob, and a scepter shall rise out of Israel, with might destroying princes and cities. How bright the star of morning gleams, so Jesus sheddeth glorious beams of light and consolation. Thy Word, O Lord, radiance darting, truth imparting, gives salvation. Thine be praise and adoration!"

                                                            ~ Felix Mendelssohn

"Thy Word Is a Lamp Unto My Feet" ~

 "... and a light unto my path."  Psalm 119:105

We are thankful for the generous anonymous gift to our church of this pair of oil-burning candles.

 We are reminded of the many passages in God's Word that speak of light. "You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hidden." Matt. 5:14

 "For with You is the fountain of life, and in Your light do we see light." Psalm 36:9

New Windows

This week our church is enjoying some new beauty in our sanctuary. Thanks to the generosity of a church member, all four of the sanctuary window transoms are now graced with stained glass. We previously had only one, donated by a family who have since moved away.

 The three windows added this week portray aspects of the life of Jesus Christ, beginning with his birth.

Continuing with His life of service, including the Lord's Supper,

And ending with His death and resurrection, shown in the lovely Easter lily.

We're so thankful for this beautiful addition to our worship environment. What a blessing to the church!
