The lighting of the Advent Candles
Loving God, help us to be your light in the world. As we share not just “seasons greetings,” but the love of Christ with others this season, shine your radiance through us to bring light to all we encounter. As we bring light to this candle, so may you bring light to our world. Amen.
Hymn—Arise, Your Light is Come!
Closing prayer
Close your time together with sharing of joys and concerns
