A note of joyful expectation marks today's worship. Isaiah announces that the desert shall rejoice and blossom, and Jesus points to the unexpected and transforming signs of God's reign. We wait with patience for the coming of the Lord, even as we rejoice at his presence among us this day: in word and holy supper, in church and in our homes, in silent reflection and in works of justice and love. We pray that God would open our eyes and ears to the wonders of Christ's advent among us.
All are invited to a workshop after today's service, "Leaning Into Prayer." Led by Vicar Carrie Hoff, this spiritual habit of prayer workshop is designed to help individuals strengthen their prayer life through exploring different methods and approaches. Participants will be introduced to a variety of techniques to deepen their connection with God.
