Advent Worship Confessional
I can’t believe it’s been months since I posted on Sunday Setlists at The Worship Community! Shameful!! I’m back!!
What a fantastic weekend at NMBC! Like most churches we have just finished our 3rd Sunday of Advent and it seems the season is flying by very quickly! We decided this year to use Gospel For Asia’s Forgotten Christmas theme to challenge our people to remember the true meaning of Christmas; to get past the commercialism and secularization of what should be a deeply meaningful experience with Jesus. Pastor Bob started off the series asking us to consider the Forgotten Circumstances of that first Christmas. The second week we focused on the Forgotten People in the story, and this week was all about a Forgotten Gift.
Here are the songs we chose for this past Sunday:
Joy to the World – Third Day arr. Immanuel – Stuart Townend Infant Holy, Infant Lowly – High Street Hymns arr. Everything Changed – Eddie Kirkland Hark the Herald Angels Sing – traditional carol arr. What songs have you used this year that have impacted your faith community?
The String Friends
In the evening we hosted our first, possibly annual, Christmas Cafe Under the Stars! We were blown away by the turnout. We set up for 110 and to our surprises we had over 200 attend. Along with hot cider, hot chocolate and exceptional treats, we were also treated to some great music and story from a variety of people ranging from seniors to 8 yr olds!
We are truly thankful to God for what He is doing in our congregation! What events have you planned for this Advent season?
