Thank you to all our readers, choristers, and instrumentalists for our annual service of Lessons and Carols, held this past Sunday. And thank you as well to all who attended this wonderful celebration of the season.
As we enter this special season, please especially keep the needy in your thoughts and prayers. At this time, donations of simple gifts (pre-wrapped and labeled for a man or woman) are gathered at the church for distribution to seniors at local care facilities, especially those who might be without family. Also, food ingathering for distribution through Chatsworth FISH is also greatly appreciated.
Almighty God, give us grace that we may cast away the works of darkness, and put upon us the armour of light, now in the time of this mortal life, in which thy Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge both the quick and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal, through him who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, now and ever. Amen.
