Bridge-to-Advent - November 24th, 2019
Scripture: John 1:1-9, 14
In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
All things came into being through him,
and without him not one thing came into being.
What has come into being in him was life,
and the life was the light of all people.
The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness did not overcome it.
There was a man sent from God,
whose name was John.
He came as a witness to testify to the light,
so that all might believe through him.
He himself was not the light,
but he came to testify to the light.
The true light,
which enlightens everyone,
was coming into the world.
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we have beheld his glory,
the glory as of a father's only son,
full of grace and truth.
The journey of Advent begins next Sunday, December 1st.
You are invited to host this Scripture…
to read it and learn some or part of it by heart
during the 4 weeks of Advent.
We will tell it and reflect on it each Advent Sunday at Worship as we wait and hope together for the coming of Jesus into our world...
