It is our second week of Advent! Today we explore the question, "How does a weary world rejoice?" by looking at the story of Mary ad Elizabeth in Luke 1:24-45. "We Find Joy in Connection" is the title of our message.
Our hymns are "To us a child of hope is born," "O God of Love, O Power of peace," and "The Angel Gabriel." We will close our service with "Light dawns on a weary world." Lyrics are here: https://hymnary.org/text/to_us_a_child_of_hope_is_born, https://hymnary.org/text/o_god_of_love_o_king_of_peace (our lyrics are slightly different, and we skip verse 2), https://hymnary.org/text/the_angel_gabriel_from_heaven_came, and https://christologyinmusic.wordpress.com/light-dawns/.
