December 1 – First Sunday of Advent
You are a Blessing
Isaiah 43:1-7 | Luke 1:26-38
Mary is described as “blessed among women” (Luke 1:28). She is neither wealthy nor powerful, and yet she is chosen to bear God’s child. Her story begins with blessedness and so does ours, for the prophet Isaiah declares that we are claimed by a God who calls our name. We are a blessing because we belong to God. When blessedness is our beginning, we begin to see the world—and others—through the eyes of a God who says: “You are precious in my sight” (Isaiah 43:4).
We will share in communion at the chancel rail this morning. The Senior Choir will be singing.
Livestream 10:30 AM Worship Service
ERUCC also holds a healing worship service with Holy Communion at 8:30 AM.
