THE SECOND SUNDAY OF ADVENT
is for
LOVE

(Lighting two purple candles 1 for Hope and 1 for Love)

“Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary?” 

-Matthew 13:55 KJV

---

The LOVE that came to earth at Christmas was not simply a showering of gifts. God has been doing that from the beginning of creation.

Love was the gift in His Incarnation – because He was present among us.

---

PRAYER:

Father, guide us this week

to practice the LOVE

of caring for others.

Amen.
