Welcome & Announcements

Prelude – "What Child Is This?”

Silent Meditation: It’s hard to wait. Whatever we want, we want it now. We don’t want to wait a few minutes, or days, or certainly not years. But life is like that sometimes. So when we are forced to wait, what will we be like in that period? Often, there’s nothing we can do to speed things up, so we must sit in that unwelcomed waiting time, knowing that we are held by God’s Holy Spirit, and be ready to go when the time is right.
