  • An Advent Devotional Based on the Chrismon Tree
    An Advent Devotional Based on the Chrismon Tree By Chaplain Chris Haughee The Evergreen Tree “HIS WAYS ARE ETERNAL…” HEBREWS 3:6 The Chrismons, or “Christ Monograms” are all hung on a tree, the Chrismon Tree. The tree itself is also a symbol for the Christmas season, a reminder of the truths we celebrate as we recall Jesus’ birth. Legends of the Christmas Tree abound, both secular and religious. Every year, without fail, we can find some group or another arguing over whether the tree should be called a Christmas Tree or a Winter Tree, or something else entirely. The most famous trees in the United States, or at least those most pictured in popular media, are probably the Capitol Tree in Washington, D.C. and the tree in Rockefeller Center. Having grown up in Western Washington State, evergreen trees abounded. We were surrounded by them as much as we were by mountains, hills, clouds and rain. In fact, Washington is called the “Evergreen State.” Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall… you can always expect the same appearance from the evergreen tree. It is constant… enduring. This is what makes it such an excellent symbol for the season of Christmas. We celebrate the in-breaking of the eternal God into our broken world—a world governed by days, months, and years. The seasons come and go, our children grow up and move away, we ourselves age… nothing seems to stay the same. Into our constantly shifting world came the changeless One, God Almighty, in the tiny baby of Bethlehem. Enduring everything that comes with adopting our humanity, Christ was subject to the pains of change, loss, and living in this fallen world.

    Advent Guide 2020 A season of special opportunities and experiences First Presbyterian Church of Moorestown fpcmoorestown.org 856.235.1688 See him in a manger laid, Jesus, Lord of Heaven and earth Page | 2 The Meaning of Advent "The celebration of Advent is possible only to those who are troubled in soul, who know themselves to be poor and imperfect, and who look forward to something greater to come." ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer The word “Advent” is derived from the Latin word adventus, meaning “coming,” which is a translation of the Greek word parousia. Scholars believe that during the 4th and 5th centuries in Spain and Gaul, Advent was a season of preparation for the baptism of new Christians at the January feast of Epiphany, the celebration of God’s incarnation represented by the visit of the Magi to the baby Jesus, his baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist, and his first miracle at Cana. During this season of preparation, Christians would spend 40 days in penance, prayer, and fasting to prepare for this celebration. Today, the season of Advent lasts for four Sundays leading up to Christmas. At that time, the new Christian year begins with the twelve- day celebration of Christmastide, which lasts from Christmas Eve until Epiphany on January 6. Advent begins on the Sunday that falls between November 27th and December 3rd each year. Advent 2020 begins on Sunday, November 29, and ends on Thursday, December 24. Page | 3 Advent Worship Schedule Our pastoral staff presents the Advent sermon series “Be Not Afraid,” which begins November 29 and runs through December 20.

Writing a foreword for a volume I haven't read is a bit like describ- ing the taste of a soup I've never eaten, but having been intimately involved in much of the study and preparation for this history and knowing of the loving concern and justifiable pride that have gone into tliis "backward look" at the life of a great church, I feel in- spired to express my thoughts and feelings here and now. I confess to some of that "pride" myself. A look at the history of First United Methodist Church makes one aware of the struggle, the dedication, the perseverance of the "saints" in the face of some pretty diflBcult times. You likewise sense the costly commitment to Christ which makes up the past 50 years of this church and in- deed further back than that in the history of two great church families—Tryon Street and Trinity—who came together to become First United Methodist Church.

  • Advent-Bulletin-Booklet-2018.Pdf
    Dear Friends, Welcome to this beautiful season of hope and light that has long been called “Advent” by the Christian Church. The word “Advent” comes from a Latin term meaning “arrival” for the season when we wait expectantly for Jesus’ birth. Advent begins four Sundays before Christmas and ends at sundown on Christmas Eve. Enclosed in this booklet you will find the order of worship for our celebrations as we prepare to welcome Jesus into our hearts again. Just as Mary and Joseph waited for Jesus’ birth, and God’s people waited for a savior, we long for Jesus to be born again in our hearts as we make new beginnings. When darkness falls on Christmas Eve, we celebrate Jesus’ birth and we enter a new season of the Christian year---Christmastide---which lasts the 12 days of Christmas. Christmastide ends on January 6 with the Epiphany of our Lord, which is when the star appeared over the stable, leading wise men from the East to the place where baby Jesus lay. You will notice special decorations for this holy season. Lutheran women in Virginia first developed Chrismon ornaments and a Chrismon Tree. “Chrismon” is a hybrid word of the phrase “Christ Monograms,” for the Christian symbols found on our trees. Both the triangle and three overlapping leaves represent the Trinity--Father, Son and Holy Spirit. A cross and crown stand for the victory of Jesus over sin and death. A cross on a globe signifies Christ’s omnipotence over all the earth. You may see a triangle for the Trinity with a circle for eternity.

By the time you COMMUNITY read this, Thanksgiving will be over, and the season leading up to Christmas will be beginning. As I write this, I am thinking about a new pumpkin pie crust recipe I will try (a yummy gluten-free crust made from pecans!), where I’d like to put our Christmas tree in the parsonage (probably in the dining room that now hosts my sewing machine and our piano instead of a table), and what the Advent season might look like in a new church during a pandemic. Will we be able to light the Advent candles together? Will it need to be virtual? If so, does that mean you’ll only see me in each service, rather than seeing the beauty Rev. Emily and Chris Hart along with their of our extended community? And what about our 4-legged babies.

  • First Sunday in Adventaf December 2, 2018
    First Sunday in AdventAf December 2, 2018 Calvary is a Christ-like community that experiences and shares God’s love. Calvary welcomes and affirms all people as children of God from every cultural and religious background, sexual orientation, family composition, physical and mental ability, economic means, race, age and gender. Order of Worship “As we anticipate God made flesh in Christ Jesus, we dare to relinquish control, to harness our empty life-numbing habits, and to forfeit logic and reason because God often acts outside of such boundaries. Advent is a season in which we are reminded that God invites us to listen, dwell, wait, and trust in communion with one another. No one is left to discern God’s life-altering activity alone, to hold God’s promises alone, or to bear the burden of divine blessings without faithful companions, whether human or angelic…We are given a wider glimpse of God when we allow Advent to be an invitation to dream beyond our comfort zones of what we think can happen in our lives or what God can do.” - Enuma Okoro (Nigerian-American author & speaker) The + symbol invites you to rise in body or spirit. In the spirit of worship, please silence all electronic devices. Prelude Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence C. Callahan During the prelude the blue Advent paraments are placed on the pulpit, lectern, and Bible and the Advent candles are placed in the Advent wreath. Chiming of the Hour Welcome Rev. Morgan C. Fletcher Welcome to Calvary! We are glad you have joined us for worship today.
