This blog gives you a glimpse into the upcoming Sunday Gathering. It's an opportunity to read through the passage we'll be studying together, pray through some of the liturgy we'll be using, and listen to a selection of the songs we’ll be singing


ADVENT: WAITING - The Lamps

SERMON

Gary Aston will be preaching from God’s word to us this Sunday as we continue in the season of Advent. He will be preaching from Matthew 25:1-13.

LITURGY

CALL TO WORSHIP

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shined. And today, above our darkness and sin, the Word of truth and light resounds. Over nations deep in despair His salvation dawns.

For a child is born to us, a Son is given to us. And He will be called: Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

(based on Isaiah 9)

MUSIC

O God of Mercy Hear our Plea (Sovereign Grace): A song that pleads with God to hear our prayers as we lament the brokenness of this world.

Revelation Song (Kari Jobe): A reflection on John's revelation and the response of fear and awe that should be seen in all of us as we're faced with the reality of Christ.
