Matt Nieman Prelude Tami Newsom, keyboard Hymn Longing for Light, We Wait in Darkness Christ, Be Our Light Dr. Angela Batey, solo Longing for food, many are hungry. Longing for water, many still thirst. Make us your bread, broken for others, share until all are fed. Christ, be our light! Shine in our hearts. Shine through the darkness. Christ, be our light! Shine in your church gathered today. From Glory to God Presbyterian Hymnal, Text and Music © 1993 Bernadette Farrell. Published OCP, 5536 NE Hassalo, Portland, OR 97213. All rights reserved. Used by permission. Leader: During Advent we celebrate that God comes to his people. Jesus is the One-who-comes; Jesus is the One-who-rules; Jesus is the One-who-was-promised. People: We worship him! Leader: Jesus shines as the One-who-was-promised. People: Let the light shine! Call to Worship The Spirit of the Lord is with us. The time of God’s favor has come. Pray for the gift of joy from God: Shine in our lives, Lord Jesus Christ. Let us worship God. Opening Song “O Come, All Ye Faithful” John F. Wade arr. Craig Duncan Prayer of Confession God our Maker, we confess that we are not ready to meet you. You send your Spirit to release us, yet we remain captivated by sin. You stand among us in Christ Jesus, yet we claim we do not know you. Forgive us, God of grace. Make us holy; make us whole. Keep us safe and sound until the day of your coming; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Declaration of Forgiveness *Passing of the Peace ~The Word~ Prayer for Illumination Lord, open our hearts and minds by the power of your Holy Spirit, that as the Scriptures are read and your Word is proclaimed, we may hear with joy what you say to us today. Amen. Scripture Readings: 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24 Psalm 126 The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Sermon “Like Those Who Dream” Rev. Matt Nieman ~The Response~ Affirmation of Faith - from Romans 8:22-25 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons and daughters, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what one already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. Anthem There Was Jesus Beathard/Smith/Williams Call for the Offering Prayers of Thanksgiving and Intercession The Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. ~The Sending~ Closing Song Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus Charles Wesley arr.

All gifts should be gift wrapped with the child's name and tag number included and delivered back to the church by TODAY. If you still have a gift to deliver, please contact Debbie Long. Presbyterian Women are collecting hats, gloves, mittens and scarves for infants to adults through TODAY for Sunset Gap, which has been hit hard with the pandemic and loss of area jobs. The donated items will go on the Gap’s “Mitten Tree” and will be available at no cost to the folks. Items will be delivered to the Gap when the Christmas gifts are taken later this week. Look for the red container in the narthex to hold your contributions. Please contact Beth White with any questions. Our annual Service of Lessons and Carols will be released TODAY at 6:00 p.m. and can be found on the FPC YouTube Channel and our website, www.fpctn.org. The Service of Lessons and Carols is a traditional seasonal service of scripture and music. It is a very special and intimate service celebrating the true meaning of the season and will feature Knoxtet, an area professional ensemble, as well as members of our congregation. We hope you enjoy this very special service!! The FPC Merry Mask Makers would like to thank the entire congregation for their continued support of the mask fundraiser for new medical equipment for Fellowship Hall. As a result of everyone’s generous donations – the Merry Mask Makers have raised over $1000 to date for this good cause! Don’t forget that masks of all shapes, sizes, and colors are available at a table in the Narthex. The masks are separately bagged and marked with the size – and new ones are added weekly. Masks are $5 each and you can leave a donation in the box provided. Don’t hesitate to contact Jenny Trussell, [email protected], if you need to make a custom order (no bulk orders please) or have questions about masks. Thanks to all for your generosity! Shepherd of Hope Food Pantry: Thanks to your generous donations, the pantry served almost 300 guests during the month of November during the 2 regular pantry days and the school voucher day. This is a record and double the usual number of guests served during the holidays. Because of the special item donations from the three participating churches, each guest received a Thanksgiving bag filled with food items they might not have been able to purchase themselves. FPC donations made a huge difference! Pantry needs for Christmas are: • Boxed Scalloped/Au Gratin Potatoes • Large boxes of Jell-O (any flavor) • Regular Ground Coffee (any size – avoid flavored coffee) • Tea – Regular bags for hot or cold tea (avoid flavored teas) The pantry will be open December 7 and 21 for the regular guests and on the 17th for the school voucher program. Once again, guests will receive a special Christmas bag and participating churches are providing the contents. In addition to the above-mentioned items, the pantry can always use cereal, canned meats, boxed dinners, soups, peanut butter, jelly, cooking oil, bars of soap, toothpaste, deodorant and laundry detergent. Bring your donated items to the church and place them in the grocery cart in the narthex. Many thanks to all the dedicated FPC volunteers who work at the pantry. If you would like to volunteer your time for this worthy cause, please contact Betty Nicholls, 865/724-5031 or [email protected]. Christmas Joy Special Offering: God is with us! God saw the great needs of the world and offered the perfect gift; a gift that brought God and humanity closer together. God’s perfect gift to us – Jesus Christ! One of the names given to Jesus according to Matthew’s Gospel is Emmanuel, “God is with us.” The final Special Offering for 2020 is the annual Christmas Joy Offering which will be collected between now and December 20. This offering assists current and retired church workers and their families and provides education assistance at Presbyterian-related schools and colleges equipping communities of color. Specially designated envelopes will be available in our pews and on the welcome desk in the connector. Persons who are not in attendance in person can make a contribution by sending a check to the church indicating the purpose to support the Christmas Joy offering.

    Session 1 Session 1 READINGS ON 1 DISCIPLESHIP Purpose: The purpose of this session is to give you biblical understanding of the nature of discipleship. These two readings will introduce you to the charac- teristics of a disciple and the primacy of discipleship in your Christian life. Objectives 1. The disciple will know the source of our calling. 2. The disciple will understand the characteristics of a disciple according to the scriptures. 3. The disciple will see the importance of producing reproducers in the process of discipleship. 4. The disciple will be challenged by these two readings to obey Christ’s call to be active throughout your life in personalized discipling. Scripture Memory Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matthew 28:19-20 Agenda 1. Mutual sharing, accountability, and prayer. 2. Discus the readings. 3. Discuss the questions. 4. Share Scripture memory. Page 36 Session 1 THE MARKS OF A DISCIPLE by Lorne Sanny Lorne Sanny headed The Navigator ministry in Seattle, Washington, served as vice-president of The Navigators, and worked closely with Billy Gra- Note: ham. Mr. Sanny became president of The Navigators in 1956, after the death of Dawson Trotman, the founder. Mr. Sanny served in that position until 1986. These articles may at times seem outdated. They are however, *** written by pioneers in modern day disciple- ship, and are worth "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto reproducing for your Me in heaven and in earth.

  • BABY MOSES Exodus 2:1-10
    GOD MADE THE WORLD Genesis 1:1-19 IN the very beginning there was nothing at all. Darkness was everywhere. Then God created the heaven and the earth. On the first day of His Creation God said, "Let there be light," and there was light! God called the light Day and the darkness Night. On the second day of God's Creation, He wanted a sky to separate the water that was everywhere. He kept just enough water under the sky to use on His world. All the rest of the water He put high above the sky. God named the big sky Heaven. Whenever we look up into the sky and see the clear blue color, or the fluffy white clouds, or even the refreshing rain coming down we can know that God made it for us. The third day was when God told the water under the sky to move together so dry land could be put in place. He named the dry land Earth. God put the water in oceans, lakes, rivers, and streams. He told the green grass and trees of every kind to start growing. It must have looked like a beautiful garden with all the different colors of flowers. God made seeds in everything that grew. That way, He knew that if someone wanted grass to grow they could just plant grass seeds. Or, if someone wanted an apple tree they could just plant apple seeds. God knew it was just what His world needed. On the fourth day He told some special lights to shine in the sky.

  • ENG64-0401 the Identified Christ of All Ages
    THE IDENTIFIED CHRIST OF ALL AGES Thank you, brother. May be seated. Certainly deem this a grand privilege tonight, to be here in Louisville, Mississippi. We’ve looked forward for this time, for quite a time, and I thought that I’d get to Louisville. I’m just across the river from Louisville, Kentucky, my native home. It seems like coming home again, to be in Louisville. Now, up there, some of them call it “Luavul,” “Louis-ville,” and “Lueyville.” And I don’t know what it is here. I think we, best way, way I’ve always call it, was Louis-ville. Look like L-o-u-i-s- would be Louis- ville. But, back home it’s “Luavul,” and “Lueyville,” and “Louis-ville,” so we just take our choice, which one we want to use. The main thing is, that, we’re gathered together in the Name of the Lord Jesus. We’ve assembled here for no other purpose but to serve Him, and that His great Name might be honored among us, more. When we’re…When the meeting is over, then it could…It’s possible, as it could be now. We know that we honor Him with all of our heart. And now I come here upon the invitation of the ministers of this, the locality through here, and this place. And I come not with something different from them; just the same Gospel. I believe, Jesus said once, that, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a man that taken a—a net and went to the sea.

  • Recovery and the Holy
    Recovery and the Holy A Handbook for Designing and Celebrating Healing Eucharists and Prayer Services for People with Addictions A Timely Ministry for Clergy and Lay People (in recovery or not) in Service of the Recovering Community Susan Ackley Recovery Ministries of the Episcopal Church in New Hampshire Introduction Why Offer a Recovery Eucharist or Prayer Service? We’re all aware that rates of addiction and death from addiction are climbing around the United States. Many if not most of us in New Hampshire can recount personal experiences of death from opiate and other addictions in our families, churches, and communities. Addiction is a disease that affects the whole person, body, mind, and spirit. In my eight years of serving as chaplain in a drug and alcohol residential facility, I discovered that before women and men die from overdose or alcohol or cocaine-related diseases, their spirits have been grievously wounded. And so here is my answer to the question above: We as clergy and faithful lay people are uniquely positioned for the work of healing spirits. When we do so we follow directly in the footsteps of Jesus and his loving ministry of healing and exorcism. Most of us, clergy or lay, do not have the tools to help with the body or mind part of the disease. But for millennia the church has studied the ways of the Spirit and how the movements of the Spirit can be nurtured in individuals and communities. I believe that offering sacred rituals like a Recovery Eucharist or Prayer Service is one way that we as followers of Christ can serve those who suffer.

Christ shows Himself alive in our generation! Jesus Christ had more success through William Branham’s Ministry than He did through His own, such was the extent and the wonderment of the miraculous that accompanied this modern day prophetic ministry which even overshadowed the legendary Old Testament Seers of the Bible. William Branham single-handedly spearheaded the worldwide Healing Revival of the late 1940’s and early 50’s, from which came forth the major ministries of the day such as Oral Roberts, TL Osborn and AA Allen etc., and changed the direction of the full Gospel Christian Church forever. But to what purpose? A prophet to the Gentiles Before the Gospel had been rejected by the Jews and the Holy Ghost had turned to the Gentiles, and long before the Christian Church had lost the power of God that was so ably demonstrated by the early disciples, Jesus spoke of a future prophetic ministry to be sent to “restore all things” in readiness for His second coming, i.e., a future forerunner.
