Retell It
Open your eyes and ears, and also your heart. Let the practice of telling again the story of God’s rescue open your heart to more and more expectation. As you do, you are letting every heart prepare Him room. Do not grow weary of telling and lighting candles and serving those God puts in front of you. Our hope is in the coming of the Lord.
Leader: May the Lord’s love shine in our hearts.
ALL: And may His peace be with us all.
Leader: The Lord is our faith and our life.
ALL: Our hope is in the coming of the Lord.
(Light two purple candles, and one rose candle)
Leader: Let us pray that we may grow in love for each other as the Lord comes to us. (Any additional prayer as desired.)
ALL: Amen.
