Lighting of the Christ Candle Darkness is a wonder to be explored, full of Holy Mystery. In the dark, we can find comfort and rest. In the night we are reminded of how a candle is a small and mighty flicker of resilience. We gather today to worship the One who surprises us with wonder, who challenges our comfort, and who supports our resilience. We follow the One who says, “ I am the light ” – always. Amen.
Call to Worship:The Lord is here right now God ’ s here with us.Lift up your hearts to God. We lift them up.It is right to give our thanks and praise. Oh yes, it is right to give our thanks and praise.
