Something to think about:

God of grace and glory;  Open our eyes that we may seethe world through your eyes; Open our ears that we may hear cries for justice with your ears; Open our hearts that we might share your compassion; Open our minds that we might discern your truth; Open our mouths that we  might speak your word;    Embolden us with your Spirit that we might: respond to all we see and hear; put into practice what we learn from you; and be messengers of your grace and glory.  Amen

Zoom Advent Course

During Christmas, we can often be so busy with the commercial side of Christmas that we forget to simply rest in God's presence and look forward with anticipation to Christmas and Jesus' return. If you would like to make sure you find the time to anticipate Christmas, you might like to sign up for these three Advent Prayer sessions.

Each Wednesday in Advent there'll be an opportunity for prayer together on Zoom at 7:30-8:30pm. Each session will stand alone, so come to as many or as few as you can. The theme will be: Waiting, Watching, Hoping.
