The Inn! Housing the Holy
It's Christmas Eve... we stand at the door of the "Inn".
The Advent lights of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love bid us welcome.
The animals from the stable invite us to each share our unique gift of presence.
Together, we 'house the holy' and shine a light of welcome and compassion in a weary world this season.
Bring a candle to worship as we light candles and sing Silent Night.
The Inn: A Room with a View (Love)
We've been making room this Advent for 'Housing the Holy' and opening wide the door of the 'Inn' of our lives and our church. Love is the 'view' from this room we've been preparing - a bold, compassionate, daring love.
'How Much Is Enough?'
This week we offer the Light of Joy to illumine the Door of Welcome. When we share what we have, we spread joy.
When everyone has enough, the lonely and frightened spaces in our world are filled with the light of Joy.
A Place at the Table (Peace)
As we make 'room in the inn' this Advent, we consider the prophets' call to care for our neighbours and the work of 'housing the holy'. When everyone finds a place at the table, the lonely and frightened spaces in our world are filled with the light of Peace with justice.
Advent 1: "Making Room (Hope)"
As we settle into our new home we consider the work of 'Housing the Holy'.
How can Visions - how can each of us - become a place where the Holy will be born anew, and the lonely and frightened spaces within us are filled with the light of Hope.
