LIGHTING OF THE ADVENT CANDLE

We light this candle as a sign of the coming light of Christ.
Christ is the reflection of God’s glory,
the very imprint of God’s own being. (Hebrews 1)
Night and day we pray that God will strengthen us in holiness and love. (1 Thess 3)
Thanks be to God for this good news of great joy! (1 Thess 3, Luke 2)

*CALL TO CONTINUING WORSHIP based on Psalm 25:4-6

Make your ways known to us, Lord;
teach us your paths.
Lead us in your truth—teach it to us—
because you are the God who saves us.
We put our hope in you all day long.
Lord, remember your compassion and faithful love—they are forever!
