Light dawns on a weary world when eyes begin to see all people's dignity.
In a world longing for peace, justice, and hope, the promise of Advent is that darkness will not have the final word. This year's Service of Lessons and Carols takes its inspiration from Mary Louise Bringle's beautiful hymn, Light Dawns on a Weary World, and our Advent theme, Until the Dawn. Together, they remind us that even in the midst of weariness and uncertainty, God's light is already breaking into the world.
Through scripture, carols, and choral music, we will journey from the ancient promises of the prophets to the joyful proclamation of Christ's birth. Along the way, we will hear again the promise of a world transformed by God's love—a world where justice blossoms, compassion takes root, and hope is renewed.
Join us on December 13 at 11am in the Sanctuary as we watch, wait, sing, and celebrate the coming dawn, trusting that God's light continues to shine in and through us, bringing hope to a weary world.
