Advent
The season of Advent has begun! Each Sunday we will be offering three in-person Sunday services as well as an online service live-streamed through our YouTube channel (more information below). We will also be offering both an in-person and online live-streamed Wednesday evening service that will allow you to further enrich your advent journey. We hope you will make worship a priority during this time of Advent preparation for a deeply meaningful Christ-centered Christmas. Receive daily Bible verses by texting ADVENT to 248-970-9971.

Weekly Prayer (12/4)
Loving and kind God, in the midst of our troubled and anxious and hurting world, we thank you for the gift of peace you give us through Jesus - the peace which surpasses all human understanding. Teach us and guide us in his ways so that we may be peace-filled and peace-makers in all that we say and do. Help us as your people to courageously trust you, just as Mary and Joseph did, as we move into the uncertainties, unknowns, and challenges of the days ahead. As we journey through life, grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change; the courage to change the things we can; an the wisdom to know the difference. So that living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; we may accept hardships as the pathway to peace...trusting that you will make all things right as we surrender to your will - and may we always have your peace in our hearts. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, who is Emmanuel, God with us, today and forever. Amen.
