Announcements & Welcome Anthem: Angels are Making Their Rounds Pepper Choplin Hymn: Good Christian Friends Rejoice VU 35 Opening Prayer: (in unison) Joy is this season s gift, a grace given by You, the Creator, We come to worship in the light of joy s radiance, Shine upon us, enlighten our lives and show us how to see, Give us an open mind, a tender heart and a willing spirit, We ask in the name of the Christmas gift given and received. Forgiving God, surprise us with your healing, When we don t feel we deserve it, From actions taken and ones left undone, When we believe others do not deserve it, Heal us all and bring us into the joy of life with You (Silent Prayer)
