We have two worship services this weekend, as we begin our celebration of Advent. On Saturday evening, at 5:00, we will have our annual Service of Remembrance. This is a time of song, prayer, and candles lit in memory of loved ones who have passed away. It is also a way to honor the sadness that many feel during the otherwise joyous holiday season.
The next morning, we'll gather for worship on the first Sunday of Advent. There will be plenty of music, fitting into our Advent theme of "Songs of Promise." And the morning's sermon will touch on how music can flesh out the deeper emotional meanings and yearnings of words, including the words of prophecy. It will explore a link between Micah 4 and two songs, one religious, "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel," and one religious, "Bridge Over Troubled Water."
