Joy

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light.  John 1:6-8

If actions do speak louder than words (and they do), then at Christmas God has virtually shouted to the world that God cares. God cares enough to enter the place we live and brings light into our lives.

Christmas light is about an end to isolation and despair that even our best efforts can’t seem to fix. Christmas light is about hope when life is at its the darkest. Christmas light is about a future that God has provided for eternity when death appears to be the final word in life.

As John reminds us, Christ is coming. In the promise of our baptism, in the gift of God’s grace, Christ claims us as his own. We do not always know how to advance God’s light into the world. But God has still chosen us to be bearers of his good news, the bearers of Joy!

Join us on Sunday as we receive the Holy Spirit into our lives and ministry. A gift from the King of Kings.  We begin worship at 10 am.  All are welcome either in-person or on-line and the bulletin can be found on this website in the virtual bulletin tab. We look forward to seeing you!
