Rev. DaVontaé Edwards
A voice cries out: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD,
Make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low;
The uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain.
Then the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, And all people shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."
Prepare our hearts, O Lord, for this holy season of reflection and anticipation.
Make straight our paths, lift up our hearts, and help us to see Your glory revealed. Amen. ~adapted from Isaiah 40:3-5
Invocation and Lord’s Prayer: Davis Porterfield
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily
bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, for Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
The Leach Family
This day we light the candle of hope. In a world so often filled with despair, we cling to the hope of our Savior, who makes a way out of no way and creates a highway in the desert. Light Your hope in our hearts so we may speak with our lips and our lives: “For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from Him.

Choral Anthem
“There Shall a Star Come Out of Jacob”
There shall a star come out of Jacob and a scepter shall rise out of Israel, with might destroying princes and cities.How bright the star of morning gleams, so Jesus sheddeth glorious beams of light and consolation.Thy word, O Lord, radiance darting, truth imparting, gives salvation;Thine be praise and adoration!

"The church on the corner with the big columns" is who some say we are. While blessed with a building, the life of our church expands beyond these six columns. <br>We are a family of faith striving to love God and love others, acknowledging the greatest commandments as defined by our Lord. These are the foundation for our existence; and everything we do, whether inside or outside these columns, must reflect love of our God and love for others. <br>The four inner columns represent the four primary areas of the life of our church: Inreach, Outreach, Spiritual Growth, and Missions.
