NOVEMBER 30 THE FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT / HANGING OF THE GREENS
To observe our “fifth Sunday” service model intended to be “something different,” we are trying a “Hanging of the Greens” liturgy from The United Methodist Book of Worship. This will be a festive way to begin the Advent season. Lighting the candle of Hope on the Advent wreath will be Mary and Sarah Schivera. Our liturgist will be Meg Temple. The message “Ready or Not, Here He Comes“ will be based on Isaiah 2:1-5, Romans 13:11-14 and Matthew 24:36-44.
