We continue our midweek observance of Advent on Wednesday, December 10th with a service of Prayer & Preaching at 11:00 am. (Our preschool Christmas service will be held at 6:30 pm this evening, with a meal in our Fellowship Hall beforehand. Check our weekly announcements online for more details!)For 2025 our midweek focus is "The Saints of Advent” - meditating on how God worked in those the Church commemorates during this season of waiting and preparation. This week, we look at our Lord’s faithful mercy to Saint Lucia, Martyr! She was a native of Syracuse, Italy, who died for the faith in 304 AD and is especially remembered in the Scandinavian Lutheran tradition.
Lucia, like so many forgotten saints throughout the centuries, was a model to others of faith in Christ and love for the neighbor. Through faith in Christ, we, too, are saints, holy ones of God. Though our names may be forgotten by most, they are written in the book of life. For those who do know and remember us, our prayer is that God would use us to be witnesses to remind others of the grace and mercy of God. May we reflect the light of Christ into the darkness of sin and unbelief that others may see Jesus. (Psalm 131; Esther 3:16-21; Revelation 19:5-8; John 1:9-14)
