This week we gather with our friends from St. Laurence Anglican Church for a joint service and Sunday School Christmas pageant. You can view the service by going to their YouTube page at “St Laurence Coquitlam”. We hope you’ll join us for this always festive, joyful, and inspiring time of worship.
Nothing makes the season shine brighter than music. Whether that’s the profundity of a Bach cantata, the comfort of a Christmas carol, or the melodious strains of a seasonal song. Not that all Christmas music is great however. And maybe some can even be dangerous. Today the prophetic voices of John the Baptist and Malachi can help us understand why.

Advent, you might say, is the church’s “Head’s Up!” to all Christians. An exhortation to stay alert to the promise of Christ’s second coming, to prepare for the celebration of Jesus’s nativity, and to be on guard against all that would dull our senses to the evidence of God’s kingdom coming near always in the here and now. No wonder then that on this First Sunday of Advent we hear Jesus tell us to “stand up and raise your heads.” So where do you see signs of God’s presence in the midst of the murkiness of our world?

Christ the King Sunday is the last Sunday of the church year. It’s also the newest festival on the liturgical calendar. And it speaks to one of the oldest quandaries of the human heart: how to make sense of a world gone crazy. But what it says is higher and deeper than any human wisdom. As a dazed and confused Pontius Pilate discovers in our gospel today.

Stewardship may not be our favourite sermon topic. But it turns out Jesus spoke about our relationship with money more than almost any other topic in this preaching. Apparently he thought it mattered a lot. Which becomes clear in our gospel story today, often called “The Widow’s Mite”. A story about money that actually proclaims good news.

Love. Such a simple word. And one we probably all think we know the meaning of. Until we think about it in the context of a difficult issue of our time. Or in the context an ancient Biblical story that deals with the very same issue. Such is the story of the book of Ruth. And such is the challenge in the sermon by our guest video preacher today.

What do All Saints Sunday and summer camp have in common? They can both make us homesick. The difference is that on this Sunday we have more than just an inexperienced camp counsellor to comfort us. It’s more like we have the owner of the whole camp to welcome us into the best cabin with all the perks. And all those others waiting to greet us who we can miss so badly. Join us today for a trip to the tomb of Lazarus.

Reformation Sunday is kind of unique to us as Lutherans. Unfortunately, too often its becomes an occasion for chest-thumping pridefulness. Ironic then that Luther worked to free us from exactly such attitudes. And point us back to our baptism, the source of our freedom to be reformers in every age. What a perfect Sunday then to celebrate Confirmation with three young disciples of our congregation. Join us and celebrate!
