Rev Marcia McPhee has written a resource for us to use during the Advent Season based on the beloved Christmas carol written by William Chatterton Dix in 1865.
To quote McPhee: "During Advent we will dive into this question that is much more complicated than the lilting lullaby conveys.  We will see the story of the time leading up to the birth of Christ in its historical trauma-informed fullness.  The story of humanity and its recurring themes of oppression and corruption run right through history and into our own narratives.  Yet we can rely on the assurance of the carol to confirm that God is present with us in powerful ways that continue to be the Word of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love even and especially in the midst of hard times."
Join us as we look at the Advent story in a new way ...
Wednesday evenings, 7 pm in the church library. 
Everyone welcome.
