Here’s an advent call to worship from Ann Siddall, and the
Stillpoint Spirituality Centre and Faith Community.
Call to Worship for the Start of Advent
What
will set us journeying in search of the Christ this Advent?
How
far are we prepared to go out of our way
to
look for the signs of His coming,
and
to prepare a path?
How
will we travel through this season?
will
we be burdened by responsibilities and tasks,
loaded
with others’ expectations, overwhelmed by their needs?
Will
we be full of joy or weary of grief?
What
will guide our steps in these weeks?
Will
we follow a thread of longing,
the
hint of an alternative pathway,
the
words and music of the gathered community?
Sisters
and brothers in Christ, Advent awaits us.
Let
us place our feet on the road and begin the journey.
May
we find in familiar words, rituals and customs
the
birth of the new thing that awaits us.
