"The Christian Church is the community of brethren in which, in Word and Sacrament, through the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ acts in the present as Lord. With both its faith and its obedience, with both its message and its order, it has to testify in the midst of the sinful world... 1/2

Hope for Everyone
by Matt Maher

Hear the angels sing
To announce our King
What Good News they bring
Angels sing
There's hope for everyone

Coming on the clouds
Hear the trumpets sound
All of Heaven shouts
On the clouds
There's hope for everyone

Creator of the Stars of Night
performed by Sarah Kroger

Creator of the stars of night
your people’s everlasting light
O Christ Redeemer of us all…
When this old world drew on toward night
You came but not in splendor bright
Not as a monarch but the child
Of Mary Virgin mother mild

Psalm 104
1 Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, you are very great!
2 covering yourself with light as with a garment,
6 the waters stood above the mountains.
10 You make springs gush forth in the valleys;
24 O Lord, how manifold are your works!

“As Jesus Christ is God’s comforting pronouncement of the forgiveness of our sins, so, with equal seriousness, he is God’s vigorous announcement of his claim upon our whole life. Thru him…comes to us joyful liberation from the godless ties of this world for free, grateful service to his creatures.”
