1 St Paul s Anglican Church A caring community of Christ worshipping God, engaging the community and building connections between people of all ages and cultures. 2 Margaret Street, P.O. Box 352, Canterbury Vic 3126 Tel: Website: Church Office: office@stpaulscanterbury.org.au 7th December, 2014 Second Sunday of Advent Today is our first of two encounters with John the Baptiser this season. His is a figure that has become almost routine to us in its strangeness., Yet his message is not routine at all: while wearing camel s hair clothing and eating locusts, he yells at us that someone is coming who will baptise us with fire. But this, we must remember, is the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ (Mark 1.1) - and the gospel of Jesus is so remarkable and contrary to expectations that it must be announced by a wild, uncommon figure. Mr J Woodfin, Copyright Anglican Board of Mission 2014 Hymns: 289 Instrumental Setting: Agnus Dei Lotti Psalm , 8-13 Chant: Hanforth Music preceding the gospel: Alice Findlay and Carole Pitt (violin and guitar) Anthem: This is the record of John Ives Postlude: Nun komm der Heiden Heiland BWV 659

4 4 Isaiah Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God. 2 Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that she has served her term, that her penalty is paid, that she has received from the LORD s hand double for all her sins. 3 A voice cries out: In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. 5 Then the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all people shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken. 6 A voice says, Cry out! And I said, What shall I cry? All people are grass, their constancy is like the flower of the field. 7 The grass withers, the flower fades, when the breath of the LORD blows upon it; surely the people are grass. 8 The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand for ever. 9 Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, do not fear; say to the cities of Judah, Here is your God! 10 See, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. 11 He will feed his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms, and carry them in his bosom, and gently lead the mother sheep. Psalm , 8-13 (APBA p311) Mark The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 As it is written in the prophet Isaiah, See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way; 3 the voice of one crying out in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight, 4 John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And people from the whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem were going out to him, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 Now John was clothed with camel s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 He proclaimed, The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me; I am not worthy to stoop down and untie the thong of his sandals. 8 I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit. Next week s readings for Third Sunday of Advent: Isaiah ,8-11 Ps Thessalonians John 1.6-8,
5 PARISH STREET STALL Boroondara Council have approved our application to have a stall in Theatre Place on Saturday 13th December. Proceeds from this stall will be split 50/50 between the Parish Council Project for Syrian Refugees and the Parish General Funds. We would appreciate any contributions of goods for the stall - cakes, biscuits, preserves or Christmas gifts. We also need help on the day manning the stall. If you are able to assist, please see Margaret Irvine. 5
6 6 THE ADVENT WREATH The origins of the Advent wreath are in the folk practices of pre-christian northern Europe, where, during the cold darkness of winter, people made wreaths of evergreen and lit fires as signs of hope of life in spite of the dark and cold of winter. Christians kept these traditions alive and by the 16 th century, Christians in Germany used evergreens and fire as symbols to celebrate Advent and renewed hope in the birth and person of Christ. There is rich symbolic meaning in the Advent wreath. The wreath in the shape of a circle reminds us of the eternity, mystery and endless grace of God. The green colour of the boughs that compose the wreath points to the hope in new and everlasting life. The candles symbolize the light of God coming into the world through the birth of the Christ who is the light that shines in the darkness. Often each of the four Sundays of Advent is assigned a theme in the following order: hope, peace, joy, and love. The last candle to be lit, the central Christ Candle (often white), symbolizes the purity, peace, and centrality of Christ. Advent 2 (light two candles): Peace One: The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. Choir: We are easily distracted by the darkness of force and power and we often choose strife and turmoil. All: Source of light, shine in our lives and in your world with your everlasting peace. ADVENT: NOTICES The Advent reflections on Wednesday night, have begun and we are learning about Contemplative living with Thomas Merton. CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR CHARITY: This year, we will be collecting gifts for men's and women s refuges, to be distributed by Anglicare. The gifts will be collected by the children during the Christmas Pageant at a.m. on Sunday 14th December.
