Kuhn Memorial Presbyterian Church Christmas Eve Service of Candles and Communion December 24, 2021

12/24/2021

 
​Prelude
 
Lighting the Christ Candle
 Do not be afraid, for see-
 I am bringing you good news of great joy.
 To us is born this day in the city of David,
 a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
 This will be a sign for you:
 You will find the baby, wrapped in swaddling clothes, and lying in a manger.
 Tonight we light the Christ Candle to symbolize God’s promise fulfilled.
 For a Child has been born to us.
 A Son has been given to us.
 Authority rests upon his shoulders,
 and he is named
 Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Prayer After Communion
Great God, as you came at night when all was still,
so enter our lives this night.
Illumine our paths with the light of Christ’s presence,
that we may clearly see the way before us,
the truth to speak,
and the life to live for him,
our Lord Jesus Christ,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and forever.  Amen.
 
Lighting Our Candles from the Christ Candle
 
*Hymn  122     Silent Night
 
*Blessing
Go now, singing a song to the God of our salvation.
Sing of God’s mighty acts and proclaim God’s glory.
Join the heavenly chorus and sing:
“Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth, peace.”  Amen.
