December 22, 2024 Fourth Sunday of Advent (Blue) Prayer Focus: Love Welcome to worship at Central! In the name of Jesus Christ, welcome to worship at Central where it is our mission to follow Jesus by loving God and loving our neighbors. Our clergy, Rev. Thomas Smith, Rev. Dr. Ann Kovan, and Rev. Meg Jiunnies, are grateful you’ve chosen to make Central a part of your day today. If it is your first time worshiping with us, please visit the rear Greeters Table and fill out a Connect Card where you will receive a gift from the church. Once again, welcome!
Sermon Note As soon as she gathers with Elizabeth, Mary is blessed by Elizabeth’s greeting. She is blessed by a greeting of favor, worthiness, tenacious faithfulness, and humble service. She is also blessed as being full of divine life, love, and action. As God’s children, we share the same blessings. Will we respond in this in-between time like Mary and let our lives “sing” for joy?
