Members and Friends of Austin Mennonite Church

I pray you are enriched by the adventures along your Advent journey.
.
The texts for this week (Isaiah 61:1-4, 8-11; Psalm 126; John 1:6-8, 19-28) invite us both to prepare and to wait for God’s coming. In what ways are we actively involved with God’s arrival? Can we say we are “pregnant and waiting” like an expectant mother preparing for the baby’s arrival? Amidst the ruins of our cities and countryside, God offers liberation and restoration. We reflect God’s face as we become builders and planters of righteousness.

We welcome Kathy Reid as our guest preacher this next Sunday. This is a special blessing for us to overtake and experience as we continue our journey toward Christmas and Epiphany.

May it go well with you. Sincerely,
Garland Robertson
