Words to Ponder:

In what ways do you feel as though you are in exile?  Who are groups of people experiencing exile right now?  Who are the voices we hear crying from the wilderness?

Remember to have a piece or loaf a bread available to take part in Food for the Journey during worship.

Growing in Faith Together - Sunday, Dec 6 - 9:15 a.m.

Using our G.I.F.T. focus of being “Deeply Rooted” as well as FLC’s Advent theme “Breath of Heaven”, we’ll be exploring air, breath, and God’s Spirit in Mary, and in us. Come! we look forward to seeing you!

Blue Christmas - 5:00 p.m.

Grief and loss mark our lives this advent season.  We lament racial injustice, the daily deaths due to the rampage of the Corona virus, food insecurity, loss of jobs, and the increasing divides between people in our nation.  We need God’s breath of life to restore us in the midst of our lamentations. As we yearn for the coming of Christ in our suffering world, we invite you to consider where you most need God’s breath of life today.  Come and share this holy time of music, prayer, and reflection.

Videos will be available in the afternoon, following the 10AM radio service.
