Advent Midweek Service - 12/20/2023

GLORIFY HIM ... GROW IN HIM ... GO WITH HIS GOSPEL

CELEBRATING THE GOODNESS OF GOD
THE ORDER OF WORSHIP

A place to call home: St. Mark’s Lutheran Church & School
In the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ, we welcome you to St. Mark’s. We especially welcome our guests who have joined us today.
We pray you will be strengthened by the good news about God’s grace, love and forgiveness through Jesus.

Worship Focus: It cannot happen, Christ taken out of Christmas … so we might say; however, in a 
way it already has happened, has it not? While Christ will always remain the reason for Christmas, the 
world has not always connected and celebrated Christ with Christmas; the danger is there for us who 
know about the connection between Christ and Christmas. How can we avoid such a danger? What 
can we do to point others in Christ’s direction at Christmas and beyond? Our worship tonight is one 
of the ways to do just that.

Serving at Worship … Presiding Minister: Pastor Timothy Leistekow (Christ in Lodi) 
          Accompanist: Rosemarie Boushek … Cello: Vince Beiderbecke
