Sermon Title: "Joy: Transforming Our Attitude"
Scripture Reading: John 2: 8-20

The Shepherds and the Angels

In that region there were shepherds living in the fields,
keeping watch over their flock by night. Then an angel of
the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord
shone around them, and they were terrified.But the angel
said to them, ‘Do not be afraid; for see—I am bringing you
good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born
this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is the Messiah,
the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child
wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.’ And
suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly
host, praising God and saying, 

‘Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace among those whom he favours!’

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the
shepherds said to one another, ‘Let us go now to Bethlehem
and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has
made known to us.’ So they went with haste and found
Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger. When they
saw this, they made known what had been told them about this
child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds
told them. But Mary treasured all these words and pondered
them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and
praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.

Events

ONGOING: Hanging of the Greens - The church is
progressively decorating for the present holidays. Please
contact Steve Borgard if you'd like to help.

ONGOING: Christmas Card Fund - Every year, instead
of church members sending Christmas Cards to each
other, we ask that they money used for purchasing the
card and mailing be given as a special offering to the church.
We use this money to go towards a special project within
the church to help enhance our worship experience and/or
update the "look" of the church. This year the funds are
going to Audio/Video enhancements in the Sanctuary.
Janet Morris will be collecting funds in the narthex/lobby
at the end of both services on Sunday the 12th & 19th.
If you have questions, contact the church. Last year's donations
went to purchase the hard plastic round tables and they have
already been a great use!

UNTIL DECEMBER 18th - Helping local families - We
as a church are continuing our yearly tradition of working with
the Burbank Coordinating Council to provide meals to
local families for Christmas. In our narthex/lobby, there

to be purchased for this endeavor. Please grab one and bring
items back by Friday the 17th. The food will be delivered
on Saturday the 18th. With questions, please contact
