"This is my Body, broken for you." JYF children are continuing their study of the five elements of Worship. Recently they had a hands-on experience with one of the elements of Communion in Worship, the bread. All the elementary children were able to make and bake their own bread to take home. Angelina - 4th Grade Director of Children s Ministries, Beverly Vale Brown, says worshippers may have wondered about the smell of fresh bread Sunday, The children were given the opportunity to take their bread home and share it with their family, and they were to tell their parents what Communion was, why we do it and who is welcome at the table at FCC. They made 38 loaves of bread; There was flour everywhere. When they were trying to stir the flour into a ball... some thought they couldn't stir that hard... but they persisted. They really wanted to watched the bread rise on the window sills in the sun.

2 I must admit, it doesn t seem like the holidays have arrived until I see at least two Charlie Brown specials on TV and have likely had too much pumpkin pie for my own good! Holidays are about traditions, those special acts and rituals we share as families and friends year after year. We look forward to seeing relatives and friends, hearing the old stories, getting together for games, seeing the family photos, and eating certain favorite foods you only eat around the holiday. We actually can t wait to see our uncle wear that old gaudy tie again. We long for that special dish that grandma brings every time but we still don t know what s in it. We search for hours trying to find where we hid that old centerpiece last year so we can use it on the table. And we go out of our way to make sure the tradition lives on so that we never forget the stories that are a part of them. Many of us will gather around the table with family and friends and share in Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. More than just food, those occasions are feasts of fellowship and memories and bonds of love and friendship. Somehow the feast is always worth all the preparation in fact, the weeks of preparation, with all our expectation and longing and waiting, make it that much more special for us. And when we so prepare, the celebration is amazing! The stories come alive again! Even in the midst of the oncoming winter, such holidays warm us with comfort and joy and a feast of love and hope! This December, we start our preparations once again for another feast. It is the start of the Christian calendar and our telling of the Christ story. And this story is huge! From his beginnings in Nazareth, his baptism and temptation, his ministry, his transfiguration, his journey to Jerusalem, his triumphal entry and passion, his crucifixion, death, and resurrection, and to his ascension and reign, Christ s story begins with our waiting and longing for the birth of a Savior, the one promised to come and bring us hope and peace and joy and love and light in the midst of our darkness. I invite you to join with us this December during Advent, the four weeks leading up to and preparing for Christmas. Come and discover the hope that sustains us as we wait for the coming of Christ. Come and discover the peace God promises us. Come and discover the joy we share in his coming. Come and discover the love surrounding us. Come and share in our deep traditions and discover new ways to celebrate. Come and journey with us from O Come, O Come Emmanuel to O Come all Ye Faithful. Come and sing the old familiar carols as well as discover new songs of faith. Come and join us for Advent, and discover the true gift of Christmas all along the way. Soli Deo Gloria, Rev. Michael Jazz to the World! Did you know that on page 171 of our Chalice Hymnal is a hymn written by Dave Brubeck, one of the world's great jazz composers and pianist? Of course, there are innumerable links between jazz and church music, and coming up on Thursday, December 5 at 7 pm, you'll have a chance to hear a number of jazz tunes as rhythmic and catchy as Brubeck's "God's Love Made Visible." The second annual "Jazz to the World!" concert will feature some of Tulsa's most notable jazz musicians, playing a variety of Christmas and holiday tunes that should range from playful to soulsearching. In the line-up are cool-jazz vocalist and song-writer Tavis Minner; saxman and rapper, Myron Oliver; pianist-trombonist, Tim Shadley; vocalists, Pam VanDyke Crosby, Larry Cochran, Louisa Cornelius, Sue Warwick; pianist-vocalist Joe Wilkinson and - new this year - the senior minister at First Christian Church Tulsa, Michael Riggs, an accomplished bass player and pianist. Other First Christian artists performing are choir member Phena Hackett, who also sings with Tulsa Opera, and Steve Baggett. The emcee for the evening is KOTV news anchor, Terry Hood. Tickets are $5 each. All proceeds go to the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma. Call to reserve tickets and learn more about the event. Page 2

7 FCC Vets Honored First Christian vets Bill Osteen and Charley Crews (Army) and Harold Hatfield (Navy) were among the Eighty-three Oklahoma World War II veterans who got a trip of a lifetime this fall. Oklahoma Honor Flights flew the veterans to Washington as a way to thank them for their service to our country. The veterans flew to Baltimore, and from there the National Park Service police escorted their buses to Washington. After arriving in Washington, the Oklahoma veterans visited the Korean, Vietnam and Lincoln Memorials. From there they toured Arlington National Cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknowns. Before returning to Tulsa, the veterans visited the Iwo Jima and Air Force Memorials. The veterans were treated to a water cannon send-off Wednesday at Tulsa International Airport. The cost of the trip is about $100,000, which Oklahoma Honor Flights says is all raised from donations. The trip will be one of the last Oklahoma Honor Flights with World War II veterans. Next year, the organization says they'll start taking Korean War veterans to Washington, DC.

Our theme this year is based on the children's picture book The Sparkle Box by Jill Hardie. Jesus taught us that whenever we do something for someone in need, we do it for Him. Be sure to come to the Advent Festival to hear the story of Sam and The Sparkle Box and learn about a gift with the power to change Christmas.
