From Our Pastor: Fourth Sunday of Advent

Micah 5:2-5aPsalm 80:1-7Hebrews 10:5-10Luke 1:39-55

In this week's reading, from Mary and Elizabeth we learn that among the blessings of community is that the gospel of Jesus Christ is expressed best in community life where people become vulnerable to God’s grace and one another. As we ponder the journeys of these two pregnant women, we are reminded that we need to be patient as we wait for God’s purposes to come forth through our faithful acts. We are also reminded—as we wait and listen with one another—that we are prepared for new opportunities for mission, which are being birthed into the world.
