The Third Sunday of Advent
(Image from FreeFoto.com)
The joy of the Advent Christ be with you all.
And also with you.
He comes to liberate prisoners,
and to open the eyes of the blind;
to lift up those who are ground down,
and to pour love upon believers;
to watch over homeless refugees,
and stand up for widow and orphan.
Even the arid wilderness shall be glad,
and the desert blossom like the rose.
And also with you.

PRAYER
Holy God, Source of abundant love, peace and joy, we worship you with grateful, happy hearts. As we continue our Advent journey, help us to trust you more fully, to enjoy you more freely, and to serve you more eagerly. Let all our preparations be focussed on going to meet you as you speedily come to us. Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen!
