Scripture Sentences
(may be read by one person or divided into parts)
3A voice cries out:‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
4Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low;the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain.
5Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all people shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.’
From Isaiah 40:3-5 (NRSV)
The lighting of the Advent Candles
Loving God, be with us in these weeks of preparation. Help us to prepare not just by decorating and baking and shopping, but by making room in our hearts to experience the anticipation and wonder and joy that the celebration of the birth of your Son brings. As we bring light to this candle, so may you bring light to our world. Amen.
Hymn—Comfort, Comfort You My People
Closing prayer
Close your time together with sharing of joys and concerns
