First Sunday of Advent: November 29, 2020

November 28, 2020

Join us for our livestreamed service on the first Sunday of Advent. 

We welcome you to worship at Glebe St. James United Church, on Sunday, November 29, the first Sunday of Advent and the first Sunday of the new liturgical year. On Sunday, we will consider Hope. 

As we will be celebrating Communion also, we would invite you to make sure you have some bread or a cracker and a beverage to participate in the sacrament.

Our minister, the Reverend Teresa Burnett Cole, will lead us in worship.
James Caswell, our minister of Music, and Susan, Karen and Pam will lead us in music.
Stephanie Langill will have a children’s story.
Susan will read the Scripture from Luke 2:22 - 38.

You can find our service bulletin with hymns and announcements here
