  • The Traditions of Christmas PLS 2020
    The Traditions of Christmas The Traditions of Christmas INTRODUCTION K-8 Song--“O, Come All Ye Faithful” CW55:1-2 1 Oh, come, all ye faithful, Joyful and triumphant, Oh, come ye, oh, come ye to Bethlehem; Come and behold him, Born the King of angels. [Refrain] 3 Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation; Sing, all ye citizens of heav'n above. Glory to God, All glory in the highest. Refrain: Oh, come, let us adore him, Oh, come, let us adore him, Oh, come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord. (Christmas hymn playing in background as narrators speak.) N1 Candles glow. Lights glimmer. The smell of holiday baking drifts through the air. Cheerful decorations adorn the mantle, the tree, the front yard. As the familiar song says, “It’s Christmastime in the city.” N2 Our families, our churches, and even our cities have traditions that make the Christmas season extra special. But, at times, our focus on carrying out these traditions can overshadow the real event—the birthday of God’s Son. N3 Tonight we will look at several parts of a traditional Christmas. We will use them to refocus our attention on what really matters—the fulfillment of our Father God’s love for sinful mankind. It is our prayer, during this time of stress and uncertainty in the world around us, that the comfort found in this message gives you peace and joy. K-2 Song--Your Little Ones, Dear Lord, Are We” CW46:1-2 1 Your little ones, dear Lord, are we And come your lowly bed to see; Enlighten ev'ry soul and mind That we the way to you may find.

  • UNFROZEN SKITS: 2M, 2F Narrator Olga Inga Prince
    OVERVIEW Do You Want to Meet a Savior? UnFrozen Christmas Program contains a collection of skits, songs and readings to transform the same old “once upon a time” into an evening of joyful worship, playful presentation, and fresh examination into the story of Jesus’s birth. Once upon a time. These words have been the start of countless stories. When we hear “once upon a time,” we know what will follow. A tale of adventure and wonder. A legendary story of heroes and villains. In the end, good triumphs over evil. And everyone lives happily ever after. These tales have become familiar to us all. We know that the lowly pauper will turn out to be a prince. We know that the king will triumph over the evil. The once cold, dead heart will become unfrozen. After awhile, the story loses it’s wonder and excitement. The Christmas story began once upon a time. We don’t want to forget the power of that story. How that baby born in a manger is our Prince of Peace. How King Jesus established a kingdom that will never end. How he restores the frozen hearts of people and gives them new life. MATERIALS NEEDED PROPS: - Large storybook - Wall (The wall will provide a barrier between your two actors, but it should not obstruct the view of either from the audience. If no other option is available, the wall can be pantomimed.) - Cardboard box large enough for a person to sit in - Plastic sword - Stuffed animal COSTUMES: Traditional fairytale royal costumes here. If the costumes happen to look similar to the outfits from a certain popular animated movie, all the better.

  • Christmas Notes Part 4 – Joy to the World Pastor Ted Cunningham
    Christmas Notes Part 4 – Joy to the World Pastor Ted Cunningham Since so many of you are new to our church and your visiting this holiday season, we’re in this series called Christmas Notes and we’re taking a different Christmas favorite every week. This week it is Joy to the World. I’m not a musician, but they tell me Christmas music is very hard. If you’re a musician and you agree with that statement, would you raise your hand. I figured it out today after I saw Matt doing all those rounds over there on all of the instruments. Will you help me thank them for how hard they’ve worked putting all this together. November and December have been unbelievable months and they want me to tell you to lower your expectations for January, but we say NO! Right? Today, we’re talking about Joy to the World. We’re talking about joy. What a great day, what a great season to talk about Joy. There’s lots to celebrate at Christmas. The first thing that comes to mind is the day after Thanksgiving and is the joy of shopping. We all enjoy shopping and getting ready for Christmas. The stress with the crowds. Is anybody going to Silver Dollar City today? There are some crowds I just need to prepare you for. A couple of years ago we were there on Christmas and I heard some of the best theme parks statements I’ve ever heard in my life. On the way in where that big wreath is, and people stop to take pictures, there are ladies that ask, “Would you like your picture taken?” This time, one of the ladies asked a dad of a group of like 15 people, “Can I get you picture?” I kid you not, word for word, that dad said, “I don’t even want to be here with them right now.

  • Leaflet (Bulletin) for Holy Eucharist
    Festival Holy Eucharist Christmas Eve 2008 Washington National Cathedral ONIGHT WE CELEBRATE A MIRACLE. Like the angel, who heralded gladT tidings to the shepherds, we meet this holy night to sing the joy of Jesus’ birth. Eternity enters time with a child in Bethlehem. Yet this birth is not as we might expect, not a magisterial or glorious arrival but a simple and vulnerable coming. A tiny baby, swaddled in rags, makes God’s glory known to us. “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us…full of grace and truth.” Christmas is a celebration of the fact that, out of love, God took our human form with all its frailties. In a very real sense it is also our own birth which we celebrate tonight—a spiritual birth of the Divine Presence made new in our lives. We at Washington National Cathedral pray that this Christmas brings us closer to God who reaches out to meet us in surprising ways. Our prayer is that God’s light will shine forth in our lives, that we may bear Christ’s love to the world and to one another. carillon prelude O Come, all ye faithful Adeste fideles Joy to the world! the Lord is come Antioch Novena Di Natale per campane Nino Rota (1911-1979) Little Fife - The Flock and the Angel - The Manger - Gloria in Excelsis Deo Angels we have heard on high Gloria Angels, from the realms of glory Regent Square The Nativity – A triptych for carillon Ronald Barnes (1927-1997) Pastorale – Gloria - Cradle Song O little town of Bethlehem Forest Green Away in a manger, no crib for his bed Cradle Song Silent night, holy night Stille Nacht Hark! the herald angels sing Mendelssohn organ prelude Le Monde dans l’attente du Sauveur, Op.

  • The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ Festival Holy Eucharist Dear Friends, Merry Christmas! We’Re So Glad You’Ve Joined Us Here for a Cathedral Christmas
    The Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ festival holy eucharist Dear friends, Merry Christmas! We’re so glad you’ve joined us here for a Cathedral Christmas. Please know that the doors of this Cathedral are always open to you, and that everyone has a home here in this house of prayer for all people. During this busy time of year, I sometimes wonder what draws people to church, especially for those who rarely or never go to church for the rest of the year. There are so many demands on our time, and the places we go or the people we visit say something about what’s important. So why do churches tug on our heartstrings at this time of year? The Christmas story, at its core, is about that moment in time when God chose to dwell among us. In the church, we call it the Incarnation. Christmas is about that moment when God came closest to us, when the veil between heaven and earth slipped away and we could see and touch the very face of God. I think churches are the same way, or at least we try to be. In this glorious Cathedral, where the majestic space draws our eyes toward Heaven, we get a glimpse of that moment when God comes close. If you pause for a moment, you can feel the same sense of the incarnate God, Emmanuel, God with us. This is a place where God feels close. Maybe that’s why you’re here, in this Cathedral, this Christmas. However you got here or whatever drew you here, thank you for letting us share that experience with you, and for joining us to encounter God anew at Christmas.

  • “Wonders of His Love: Compassionate Joy” Sunday After Christmas 12-27-20
    “Wonders of His Love: Compassionate Joy” Sunday after Christmas 12-27-20 This service can be viewed at http://www.facebook.com/mosaicokc (you may need to ​ ​ look in the video section) & on YouTube at https://youtu.be/l1OWL2su9sI (with closed ​ ​ captioning) This bulletin can also be downloaded from: https://mosaicokc.org/worship_bulletins (Please see the end of the bulletin for information on our virtual coffee hour immediately after the service.) Welcome Prelude EXPANSION OF OUR HEARTS We gather together to worship the One Who Is Joy and as we come together, our hearts are expanded. We remember that the heavens declare God’s praise as the sun rises and light multiplies. And we witness that all of nature (including us) yearns to reach and expand toward the Light so that all might know joy. ​ Focusing on Compassionate Joy ​ In this last week of our celebration of the beloved hymn classic, “Joy to the World,” we hear this Psalm of Joy juxtaposed with the story of Jesus’ family fleeing with him to Egypt in order to save his life. So what’s joy got to do with it? The Hebrew root for “joy” that is used 54 times in the Hebrew scriptures–ranan (pronounced raw-nan’)–means “to ​ ​ shout, to cry out” and to “overcome.” Our shouting for joy trains the lungs and the courage to shout aloud for the overcoming of injustice. How will we use our exuberance for the righting of wrongs for the sake of the wonders of God’s love to come upon the earth? “Heaven and Nature Sing” ​ Sing a new song to the Lord Lift your hearts with gratitude Sing a new song to
