First Sunday in Advent. Lighting of the Advent candle. 
 Psalm 6:7-8
Opening Prayer
Responsive Reading    #158 Our God Comes
The Lord God of Israel said, “I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me.”
A voice of one calling in the desert, “prepare the way for the Lord;
“Make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God.
“Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low:
“The rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.
“And the glory of the Lord will be revealed and all mankind together will see it.
“For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
The sovereign Lord comes with power, and his arm rules for him.
His reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.
He tends his flock like a shepherd: he gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart.

Responsive Reading   RR 775 Beauty and Abundance
Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders you have done.
Where morning dawns and evening fades you call forth songs of joy.
You care for the land and water it: you enrich it abundantly.
You drench its furrows and level its ridges.
You soften it with showers and bless its crops.
You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance.
The hills are clothed with gladness.
The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing.

Psalm 119:1-4
Opening Prayer
Responsive Reading   #385 Salvation by Grace
Because of his great love for us, God who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions- it is by grace you have been saved.
From the fullness of his grace, we have all received one blessing after another.
For the law was given to Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!
The law was added so that the trespass might increase.
But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, So that just as sin reigned in death,
So also, grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.
In order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- and this not from yourselves.
It is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast.
