1 New Outlook December 2017 Second Baptist Church Open and Progressive since 1833 Christmas at Second Baptist Christmas is soon approaching, and lots is happening at Second Baptist! Thought-provoking sermons, fellowship times, good food, performances by our children and youth, beautiful music and poetry, and the solemnity of a candlelight service on Christmas Eve all provide opportunities to celebrate Christ s coming among us. Annual Christmas Dinner and Entertainment December 10, 2017, at 5:30 p.m. Plan to kick off the Christmas season with a special evening of great food and fellowship, with entertainment provided by our children and youth. Our children will put on the play A Lesson in Time, written by Linda Marks. In the play, a special guest comes to a classroom and helps the children there discover the true meaning of Christmas. The youth will entertain us with some Christmas songs. We are expecting a jolly man with a long white beard to drop in. It will be a joyous evening for all ages, and we hope you can join us. The cost is $9 per adult, $4 per child, or $25 per family. You can make your reservation by calling the church office or by filling out the sign-up sheet at church. On Christmas Eve at 5:00 p.m. we will share in a traditional candle-lighting service. The children will complete the nativity scene by putting the baby Jesus in the manger.
2 The Music of Advent December 3 The choir will open the Advent season with a lovely new setting of Every Valley, based on scripture from Isaiah and Micah. December 10 The Second Sunday Choir will present a fresh pairing of Give Thanks with O Come, Let Us Adore Him, accompanied by piano with Tennessee San on violin. December 17 This will be the date of our festive Songs and Sonnets service. Poets from our congregation are hard at work composing original poetry to pair with four anthems by the choir. We'll start with a rousing version of the familiar carol, O Little Town of Bethlehem, accompanied by piano with Lori Watrous on flute. This will be followed by the gentle a cappella anthem Only a Manger, featuring a solo by Cindy Collins. Then the choir will present a powerful arrangement of the haunting English carol "What Child Is This? accompanied by piano with Tennessee San on violin. The choir will close with a spirited rendition of the African-American spiritual "Rise Up! Shepherd, and Follow. December 24 At the morning service, the choir will sing a beautiful new arrangement of Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus. The evening service will feature a charming choral selection entitled "Of the Father s Love. Lori Watrous will also play a fascinating flute solo that evening of "O Little Town of Bethlehem." The choir department has been working overtime to prepare all of this music, with the prayer that you will feel inspiration, hope, and the Christmas spirit once again this year. We are looking forward to sharing our music with you. Please plan to attend and bring friends! Marilyn and Brad Short Two Opportunities to Help Our Neighbors Again this year we will provide gifts for two families from St. John s Community Services in the city. A small Christmas tree in the narthex has ornaments on it that request either gift cards or food for these families. If you d like to help, choose one of the ornaments, purchase the item listed, and bring it to church by December 10. Antioch Baptist is providing toys for needy children in their neighborhood. We can help by either purchasing toys for children from newborn to age 12 or donating cash for the project by December 10. Please put monetary donations in the offering plate in an envelope marked with what they are for or give them to Larry Marks or Jim Shepardson.

6 From our pastor... Hey everybody, Welcome to Advent. The Advent season marks the four weeks before Christmas. It is meant to be a time of waiting for the arrival of the Messiah, the Christ, God expressed in human form. We wait, but the waiting is active. We wait. We yearn. We pray. We study. We meditate. We celebrate. We anticipate. We share. We serve. We wait eagerly and actively. Most of us find things to do as we wait. In the doctor s office, we read a book. In the checkout line at the market, we peruse the ridiculous tabloids. As we wait for a movie to begin, we check our phones. As we wait for a baby to be born, we paint a room and childproof our lives. The traditions of the Advent Season are a product of our waiting waiting for the Arrival of a King who ushers in a new realm. Sunday morning messages during the Advent Season will focus on some of these traditions, their origins, their practices, their application to a life of faith. Should be fun. The first Sunday in Advent is December 3. Cindy Collins recently wrote a wonderful piece titled Waiting. I share it with you here in celebration of Advent. WAITING As a seed, I wait; impatiently For Your word For Your timing For Your conditions to be met I have all that I need in Your keep Yet the weeds grow all around me The storms vow to take me down The life giving sun burns my soul My fellows crowd me aside Like the seed coat that keeps me dormant Waiting for Your word Waiting for Your timing Waiting for Your conditions to be met Let me wait in Your keep. -- C. Collins Let s take care of each other, Steve World Food Day Fourteen people from Second Baptist packed 3024 meals!
