1 First Presbyterian Church of Farmington Farmington Road Farmington Hills, MI (248) The Church of the Open Hands December 23, 2018 Fourth Sunday of Advent Prayer of Preparation Ann Weems When the Holy Child is born into our hearts there is a rain of stars. A rushing of angels, a blaze of candles. This God bursts into our lives. Love is running through the streets. We Enter into God s Presence *Please stand in body or spirit Welcome & Minute for Mission S.O.S. Chris Davis Congregational Life Invitation to the While We Are Waiting (v. 1) Holy Spirit 92 Prophetic Reading Micah 5:2-5a O.T. p. 865 Prelude Solemn Processional Leon Boellmann Lighting of the The Candle of Love Pam Jusino, Shari Fiore & Fourth Advent Candle Jerry Custer *Hymn 88 O Come, O Come, Emmanuel (v. 1, 7) Confessing Our Separation from God (unison) God of the Loving Heart, you send signs of love in people who care. But often we confess those places in our hearts where we have refused you entrance: people we have refused to love; habits we never get around to changing; good things we have left undone; and ways in which we hurt you, ourselves, and others. Come to us in the light of your Christ. Shine on those places we have hidden from you. Show us new ways to live. Sweep clean the rooms of our hearts, that Christ may find a home among us. Be known among us now and forever! Amen! A Time of Silent, Personal Prayer for Peace 1

Nicolai of the Friendship Pad *Doxology All That We Have Jerry Custer *Prayer of Thanksgiving (unison) God of Love, thank you for the promise of the season. This morning, as we draw closer to the blessed birth, we remember Mary and how your blessings come to the world in the most unexpected ways and often through the most unprepared people. Give us eyes this day to see the wealth of ways you have blessed us and the opportunities you have placed before us to be an unexpected blessing to others. May these gifts represent a new spirit of joyous sharing among us, for the sake of all your children everywhere. We pray this in the name of Jesus, who gave in love all there was to give for us. Amen. 2
