Faith Happenings

From our Pastor
December 2021
Beginning with the first Sunday in Advent, and continuing to Christmas Day, Christians joyously prepare themselves for the coming of the Christ Child. The sermons preached on the next few Sundays and in midweek Advent services, the Scripture readings, hymns, even the paraments on the altar – all serve to remind God’s people that “your King comes to you.”
Advent and Christmas furnish us with a special opportunity for praising God because “when the time had fully come God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive the full rights of sons and daughters” (Galatians 4: 4-5).
Christians also recall and rejoice that Christ the King came to us once in baptism. In his Holy Supper, he comes to us in a gracious and merciful way, giving us his body and blood for the forgiveness of our sins. He comes to us in his Word as it is spoken and read. In fact, he never leaves us; he is with us always, even unto the end of the world.
Please join us for our midweek services during this Advent season. The theme for the midweek series is the Old Testament’s “The Symbols of Salvation.”
December 1st “Old Testament Christmas”
December 8th “ The Lord Sets Up His Tent Among Us”
December15th “ You Shall Defeat Them As One Man“
Each midweek service will begin at 7:00pm.
God’s richest blessings to all as we begin our Advent journey to the manger and the birth of our Savior. Pastor Ross
