This weeks readings:
Take time to mediate on God’s word and prepare for worship this Sunday.
Isaiah 64:1-9
Psalm 80:1-6
1 Corinthians 1:3-9
Mark 13:32-37
Mark 13:32-33
But about that day or hour no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Beware, keep alert; for you do not know when the time will come.
Be ready for the return of Christ. Some of the signs that will precede his coming are war, hunger, earthquakes, false Christs, false prophets, rumors of war, loss of faith, persecution of believers, the increase of evil, and the preaching of the Good News to all the world. Sound familiar? If Jesus returned today, would you be among those who welcome him or among those who dread his coming? Reconsider your priorities and stand ready to go at a moment’s notice.
Advent begins this Sunday
We hope you will join us this Sunday for the first Sunday of Advent. Advent is a time of preparation, of reflection, and of hope!
