Whiteboard: Advent 4, The Sunday of Love



This Sunday we will light the fourth candle in our Advent Wreath, and with it we will celebrate the Sunday of Love.

As we prepare our hearts to once again welcome Christ and celebrate his birth at Christmas, I invite you to join me this week in praying the following prayer for love:


O God,
 we thank you that Jesus showed your love
for every person— babies and children,
old and young,
the sick and those who were strong,
the rich and those who were poor.
Come to us as Christmas approaches
 and let love be born in our hearts
 as you were born into the world
on Christmas Day.
Amen.
