The Third Sunday Of Advent (Gaudete)
Stir up thy power, O Lord, and with great might come among us; and, because we are sorely hindered by our sins, let thy bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be honor and glory, world without end. Amen.

Dear Friends in Christ,
Today at 10:00am the Reverend Dr. Julie Faith Parker, our guest teacher, continues her three-session sequence entitled “Three Women and a Little Baby: Advent and Luke 1-2.” The first session is “Elizabeth and the Gift of Faith” and features “a brief overview of Luke’s Gospel and his special emphases, particularly regarding women. (Luke has far more female characters than any other Gospel. Why?) We will then delve into the character of Elizabeth. Who is she? How does her faith make a difference in the life of the infant Jesus? Come and learn of the surprising power of this older woman and her loving witness to her pregnant cousin, Mary.”
You are welcome to join us in person on the Fifth Floor of the Parish House or on Zoom. Please contact us for more information.
Grace and peace to you,
Fr. Matthew Moretz+
Vicar
