Advent 2012




The King is coming. Jesus Christ has come and will
come again. This is the hope of the Church whom He
purchased with His blood. It is the eager expectation
and desire of His people. His coming is our joy, for He
is our treasure, our greatest good.
 
Advent, formed from a Latin word meaning “coming”
or “arrival,” is about the coming of Christ. It’s the
traditional celebration of the first advent of Jesus and
the anxious awaiting of His second. The season is a
time for remembering and rejoicing, watching and
waiting, and a time to reflect upon the promises of God
and to anticipate the fulfillment of those promises with
patience, prayer and preparedness.

I hope you follow our website through the Advent season. Each day there will be a scripture and a poem or story and something to share with your family to prepare for the coming of Christ.

If you live in the Sweeny, Texas area, please join us for worship at 10:00 am, 207 E. First Street, Sweeny Texas 77480.  Phone (979) 548-2192.  Blessings, Pastor Nancy
