Throughout the season of Advent, we celebrate with a Prayer Service each Monday. This week was candle #4 ~ the Love Candle. It reminds us that when Jesus came to earth, he brought a special kind of love ~ one that is unselfish, compassionate, and unconditional. He loves us just as we are. Let us pray this week’s Advent prayer.
“Heavenly Father, the whole meaning of Christmas can be explained in one little four-letter word…LOVE. You sent your gift of pure love to us that first Christmas. Love descended from heaven to be born of a virgin. Love lay in the scratchy hay of a manger in a meager barn in Bethlehem. All of your love, God, was robed in the delicate skin of a baby and wrapped in swaddling clothes. This final week of Advent, help us to reflect on the magnitude of love that was made manifest in Jesus. AMEN.” #ABVMKnights Mrs. Mangold led our Advent Prayer Services.
