​Prelude
Welcome and Announcements
*Call to Worship
Shout for joy
The whole earth,
and everything within.
Rejoice!
For Light has come into the world.
The mountains sing,
the seas resound
to the praise of your name.
Salvation
once promised is here on earth.
The angels’ song
rings in the air,
a child has been born,
Hallelujah!
The Savior of the world is here.
 
*Hymn  132   Good Christian Friends, Rejoice!
*Affirmation of Faith      The Apostles’ Creed   p. 35
 
Prayer                                                                    Robert Louis Stevenson
Loving God, help us remember the birth of Jesus that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and worship of the wise ones.
Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting. Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings, and teach us to be merry with clear hearts.
May this Christmas morning make us happy to be your children, and this Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus’ sake.  Amen.

Empower us by your Spirit, O God,

Give us courage to speak his truth,
to seek his justice,
and to love with his love.
Keep us faithful in your service
until Christ comes in final victory
and we shall feast with all your saints
in the joy of your eternal realm.
Through Christ, with Christ, in Christ,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
all glory and honor are yours, almighty God,
now and forever.  Amen.
