6th December 2nd Sunday of Advent Malachi 3:1-4 Philippians 1:3-11 Luke 3.1-6 It had been prophesied that there would be a messenger to prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. Now John the Baptist appears with his urgent message of repentance
13th December 3rd Sunday of Advent Zephaniah 3:14-20 Philippians 4:4-7 Luke 3.7-18 Our period of preparation shifts from repentance and forgiveness to the freed exhilaration of hope' as the momentous truth of God's immanence begins to dawn on us.

25th December Christmas Day Isaiah 9.2-7 Titus 2.11-14 Luke 2.1-20 Emmanuel – “God with us” – is born at Bethlehem into the human family. Now we will be able to understand, in human terms, what God is really like.
27th December 1st Sunday of Christmas 1 Samuel 2:18-20,26 Colossians 3:12-17 Luke 2.41-end Jesus' perception and understanding of his purpose and work begins to take shape throughout his childhood
Advent Meditation takes on place in Holy Rood Church, Wool on Thursdays 3rd, 10th and 17th December at 7.00pm We may not be able to buy and wrap the presents or write the cards and letters for you, or do any of the hundred and one other extra jobs that Christmas brings, but we do want to offer you a way to escape for a little while from the Christmas rush. You can do this by dropping in to our series of Thursday evening services. Lasting about 25 minutes, they will provide time for stillness, prayer and meditation. Giving ourselves just a short break can re-charge our batteries for the busy-ness of life, even the Christmas rush!
