Watch for the Light – Brian J. Mason
Advent is liminal space, a time bookended by winter’s darkness and spring’s light. It is a time of waiting—waiting for things you cannot achieve on your own: light and warmth, rebirth and new life.

What is your heritage? Who are your people? What traditions do you preserve and share with your friends and family? Please bring the bread (or baked good) of your heritage to share. And of course, bring the story, or stories, that convey its specialness to you. This service is intergenerational.
Faith isn’t just about believing in God, or any god for that matter. It takes courage to be, to awaken each day in a world filled with struggle and sickness and grief and still find it in you the courage to carve out a small sliver of joy and gratitude.
Good stewardship is just as much about generosity as it is about having a defibrillator in the event someone experiences cardiac issues. Good stewardship is about protecting our greatest assets – and that’s you.
Today we remember the lives of our beloved departed.
