Advent Blessings to you!
Our first mid-week Advent gathering last week was lovely. We gathered for dinner at 6:00 pm and we had to keep adding chairs as more people arrived. We often say that God calls us to make the table longer. Last week that was truly what we did. Our meal was very much like a Thanksgiving gathering. It was a family meal. Intimate conversations, laughter, lots of laughter, and people helping to clear the space as we made our way into the sanctuary.
Holden Evening prayer was lovely. A time in our busy schedules to center ourselves. To prepare ourselves for the anticipated Christ child. And what a gift to have Chris Wagner lead us in song. The singing last week was special.
I am looking forward to tonight's gathering. How long will our table be stretched?
