Fourth Sunday in Advent
December 19, 2010
Read from your bible: Luke 1: 46b-55
This week our candle is pink, symbolizing “Joy.” Mary was full of joy when God told her she would be Jesus’ mother. She knew her baby would bring joy with justice and compassion for all people. Whether it is something God has already done or something God promises to do, we have so many reasons to be full of joy!
Can you think of reasons for Joy that start each letter of the alphabet? For example, “A” is for Aunt Susan who always makes me smile, “B” is for bread baking in the oven, “C” is for Children International who help children all over the world have enough,…….
In worship we light the fourth advent candle in worship sing:
We pray that your Word may be born in our hearts, that we may shine bright with the joy it imparts.
We pray as we wait for Emmanuel’s birth,
The light of our hope may illumine the earth.
