Children's Liturgy Sunday December 2nd 2007
Fifth Sunday of Lent 2007
The
First Sunday of ADVENT |
|
Christmas is coming,
the church is glad to sing,
and let the Advent candles
brightly burn in a ring.
The first is for God's promise
to put the wrong things right,
and bring to earth's darkness
the hope of love and light.
The second for the prophets,
who said that Christ would come
with good news for many
and angry words for some.
The third is for the Baptist,
who cried," Prepare the way,
Be ready for Jesus,
both this and every day".
The fourth is for the Virgin,
who mothered God's own son,
and sang how God's justice
was meant for everyone.
Today we lit the first candle on the Advent wreath and sang this hymn.

During
Advent, we are going to send our love and peace to each continent of the
world.
In our liturgy, we heard about how people celebrate Christmas in other
parts of Europe. We heard about traditions in some of the countries and
how to say 'Merry Christmas' in different languages. |

| On
our decorations, we wrote our prayers for the world this Christmas. We
hung them on the tree in church. |
