Prepare the way!
Isaiah 40:3-5
|
‘A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Eternal One.
|
|
Make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
|
|
Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low.
|
|
The rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.
|
|
And the glory of God will be revealed, and all people will see it together.
|
|
For the mouth of God has spoken.’

Advent Prayer
by Thandiwe Dale-Ferguson
Holy God, during this busy season of Advent,
We pray for our world.
We seek your light in the midst of darkness,
Your peace in the midst of violence,
Your love in the midst of discord,
Your courage in the face of fear,
And your wisdom to guide us.
|
Help us to be messengers spreading your light,
sharing your peace,
and living your love
with courage and wisdom.
Amen.
