3rd Sunday of Advent, Traditional Worship & Nativity, December 17th, 2023, 10:30am

Join us in worship for the 3rd Sunday of Advent, for the Traditional Service on December 17th, 2023. “Rejoice always,” begins the reading from 1 Thessalonians. Isaiah and the psalmist make clear that God is turning our mourning into laughter and shouts of joy. “All God’s children got a robe,” go the words of a spiritual. It is not so much a stately, formal, pressed outfit as it is a set of party clothes, clothes we are happy to wear. We receive that robe in baptism, and in worship we gather for a foretaste of God’s party. Cover photo by Cristiano de Assunção on Unsplash.
