On this Second Sunday of Advent, the handbell choir begin the service by performing “Journey of the Kings.” Len and Dianne DeBraber then help us “welcome the light.” The Rev. Jeffrey Petersen leads us in God’s Word. He references Isaiah 40:1-11 for his message “Ephemera Simulans.” The “Prayers of Gratitude and Longing” are led by Elder Melissa VanderLeek.
