Sunday, 26 December, is the 2nd Day of Christmas. We need at least the Twelve Days of Christmas to celebrate and give thanks for the Child Born for Us.
This Sunday our Lessons invite us to ponder similarities and differences between being God’s faithful person in the days before Jesus’s birth and being God’s faithful Baptized child in the days after Jesus’s birth. Hebrews 1:1 points to the difference:
In many and various ways, God spoke to His people of old by the prophets. But now in these last days, He has spoken to us by His Son.
Fellowship will follow the Service as usual, but in this Holiday time we agreed not to have Bible Study this Sunday. We’ll resume our study of Isaiah on either the 2nd or the 9th of January.
Here is the link to the Service Folder. After the Service, the recording will be posted under this link as well.
No service on next Friday, New Year’s Eve nor on Saturday, New Year’s Day. We can each pray for a blessed New Calendar Year, based on what God has already shown us in the New Church Year that began on 28 November.
We will continue to celebrate Christmas on the 9th Day of Christmas, 2 January, 2022, at our regular 9am Worship with Holy Communion.
