2022 TLC&S JR Youth & SR Youth - Tuesday • Second Week of Advent

Psalm 72:1, 6-7 Give the king your justice, O God, and your righteousness to the royal son! May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass, like showers that water the earth! In his days may the righteous flourish, and peace abound, till the moon be no more! Daily Video Advent Devotions for Tweens & Teens Devotional: Prophets and Promises by Augsburg Fortress Led by Laura L. Nelson Dir. Children & Youth Ministries Trinity Lutheran Church & School 830 E Plaza Circle Litchfield Park, AZ 85338 www.TrinityLCS.org In ancient times prophets announced God’s promises of a deliverer to the Hebrew people. As you watch the daily video devotions led by Ms. Laura, look for these ancient promises, even in the Gospel of Matthew. Also watch for the different ways in which Joseph, the magi, and King Herod respond to the arrival of Jesus. Marvel at the power of God’s promises, and the mystery of God with us in a newborn child. Prophets and Promises continues the Christian tradition of setting aside time to prepare for the celebration of Jesus’ birth and to anticipate his return. The Advent season of preparation then unfolds in the joy of the twelve days of Christmas and the day of Epiphany. You will find daily devotions here for the first Tuesday of Advent (November 27, 2022) through Christmas Day! Each devotion features a scripture reading (many from Matthew), a quote to ponder, a reflection, and a prayer. The video descriptions also offer household blessings and prayers to enrich your preparations and celebrations. May God’s lasting promises give you hope, and the good news of Emmanuel’s birth fill you with wonder and peace! We will be using the devotional Prophets and Promises by Augsburg Fortress
