Passing the Peace of Christ and Welcoming the Light Christ
Hymn: “We Three Kings”
Public Domain
1. We three kings of Orient are bearing gifts we traverse afar field and fountain, moor and mountain following yonder star: O Star of wonder, star of night star with royal beauty bright westward leading, still proceeding guide us to thy Perfect Light
2. Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain. Gold I bring to crown Him again. King forever, ceasing never over us all to rein: O Star of wonder, star of night star with royal beauty bright westward leading, still proceeding guide us to thy Perfect Light
3. Frankincense to offer have I. Incense owns a Deity nigh; pray’r and praising, all men raising worship Him, God most high: O Star of wonder, star of night star with royal beauty bright westward leading, still proceeding guide us to thy Perfect Light
4. Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume breathes of life of gathering gloom. Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying sealed in the stone-cold tomb: O Star of wonder, star of night star with royal beauty bright westward leading, still proceeding guide us to thy Perfect Light
5. Glorious now behold Him arise. King and God and Sacrifice. “Alleluia, Alleluia,” Earth to heav’n replies: O Star of wonder, star of night star with royal beauty bright westward leading, still proceeding guide us to thy Perfect Light
Response: Amen, amen, amen

Sunday, December 20, will be our poetry, song, and story Sunday. Let me know if you have a poem or story to read. You could read the lyrics of your favorite Christmas song and say a few words about why it is meaningful to you. Would you like to light the candle of Love and say a few words. The suggested scripture: “And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:13
Thursday, December 24, 7pm, Zoom and Facebook Christmas Pageant. Bring your candle. Dress yourself (and your pets) as shepherds, angels, farm animals, Mary. Joseph, baby Jesus, the Inn Keeper, and anyone you can imagine was there. If you want a speaking part, let me know! We light the Christ Candle. Would someone like to talk about that Christ means to you? The suggested scripture is ““In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of people. That light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:1-5
Sunday, December 27, reflections on 2020 and hopes for 2021. Email me your prayers throughout the weeks of December and I will put them together of this last Sunday of 2020.
With blessings,
Pastor Gen

Zoom tips from Scotty:
Since some of you may not have used Zoom, here is a little how-to.
To sign onto Zoom, you need to have the Zoom app installed on your computer or smartphone.
- Once this is done, signing onto Zoom is super easy!
- The quality is a little better, both audio and video.
- We can see each other, and you can turn on your camera, or keep it off if you prefer.
Download the App:
- Smartphone: go to the App Store (iPhone) or Play Store (Android) and search for/install the Zoom Cloud Meetings app
- Mac and Windows OS:
o Go to https://zoom.us/
o Click the link SIGN UP, IT’S FREE
o Choose the free personal plan
o Download and install
Once you have the app installed, you open it and create a username and password. Usually you can have your phone or computer remember them. Then, when you want to join a meeting, just open the app, and click Join (in the Home tab). Then enter the meeting ID, and then the password, until you are in the meeting.
Here is a little hint: in the place where you enter the number, you see there is a little down arrow on the right – tap on it to see your recent meetings by name.
If you would like to do this but need help getting started, you can let Pastor Gen or Scotty know, and we will help set you up (email Scotty at scottyp333@yahoo.com). You can also check out how-to videos on the Zoom website or on YouTube.

O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant, O come ye, O come ye, to Bethlehem. Come and behold Him, born the King of angels; Refrain: O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.
Lighting of the Candle of Joy
“By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things.” Galatians 5:22-23

All: Joyful God, hoping in you brings us joy even when the nights seem very long and cold. As we light this candle, light within each of us a joy that the world cannot understand – the joy of life with you. Amen
