Third Sunday of Advent

Watchword for the Week -- Be strong, do not fear!  Here is your God. Isaiah 35:4

Isaiah 35:1-10; Psalm 146:5-10 James 5:7-10; Matthew 11:2-11

The king of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst; you shall fear disaster no more. Zephaniah 3:15

Jesus came and touched the disciples, saying, 'Get up and do not be afraid.'  Matthew 17:
Light of the world, shine upon us so that all fear and trembling may be cast out and we may live as beautiful, creative, loving children of God  as we were created to be. In Christ's name. Amen.
