Humans are story-tellers. It’s how we remember important things. (If you doubt the truth of this, ask an average church-goer on Monday what yesterday’s sermon was about. It they remember it at all, they will remember the story it contained.) Advent gives us a chance to retell our favorite story, one of new life in the midst of darkness. It is a story of hope and joy, of peace and love.
A baby cries…
and its cry commands our attention.
What does it need, how can we provide?
Presider: O come, Emanuel, into our longing hearts.
People: We lift our hearts to You
Presider: As we gather around this table
People: In expectation and hope.
On the 4th Sunday of Advent, we welcome you all to this inclusive spiritual community that invites and supports ALL people to know God’s love…and we join together with UNITY churches all around the world to proclaim our commitment.
