    WORDS FOR PREPARATION

    “Christmas is forever, not for just one day for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away like bells and lights
    and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf. The good you do for others is a good you do to yourself...
    ~Norman Wesley Brooks, "Let Every Day Be Christmas," 1976
    PRELUDE

    LIGHTING THE ADVENT CANDLES & THE CHRIST’S CANDLE


    Liturgist : Rejoice, people of God! The light has come into the world.
    (Lights the four Advent candles.)
    O God, now we light the candle of your nativity!
    (Lights the center white Christ candle.)

    Liturgist : With the company of heaven and with sounds of great joy, you come to us. This is the time of
    light and splendid joy. We have known times when God has come and brought life and light to
    our world.
    God has been born among us.

    Liturgist: The prophet Isaiah proclaimed a time when those who walked in the shadows would see a
    great light. A light would shine and a child would be born to us. The evangelist Luke painted the nativity
    sky and repeated the heavenly song of the angels, "Glory, peace on earth and goodwill!" John declared
    that this great light is Christ, the Word made flesh. This great light lives among us. By it we behold God's
    glory—full of grace and truth. At Christ's nativity, we now rejoice.

    People : God, our Life and Light, thank you for coming this night to us. Thanks for touching all heaven
    and earth with your splendor. In every corner of the world, shine (this night) with your peace. In every
    corner of our hearts, shine with your grace. Amen.
