Love God
Love Neighbor

In yesterday’s sermon (1/5/20) we looked at the compassion of Jesus.  As the elders lead us to follow His example this year, this simple weekly prayer guide can be a good prompt.  Just read the day’s passage and pray that you would be compassionate like Jesus and that our church would be, too! Meditations on the Compassion of Christ Sunday - Luke 7.11-15 Monday - Matthew 14.13-21 Tuesday - Matthew 15:32-39 Wednesday - Matthew 20:29-34

  Advent Prayer by Angela of Foligno, 1248-1309 O Lord Jesus Christ, make me worthy to understand the profound mystery of your holy incarnation, which you have worked for our sake and for our salvation. Truly there is nothing so great and wonderful as this, that you, my God, who are the creator of all things, should become a creature, so that we should become like God. You have humbled yourself and made yourself small

Let the just rejoice, For their justifier is born. Let the sick and infirm rejoice, For their savior is born. Let the captives rejoice, For their Redeemer is born. Let slaves rejoice, For their Master is born. Let free men rejoice, For their Liberator is born. Let All Christians rejoice, For Jesus Christ is born. St. Augustine of Hippo (AD 354-440)
