 And when we light the candle and quietly pray the prayer, might  we know that
 sense of watchfulness and expectation that this season of Advent brings. So that   CHURCH AND VILLAGE
 when Christ comes, both as a baby and in glory at the end of time, we might be

 ready to greet him as our Lord and our God.   ACTIVITIES, SOCIETIES, CLUBS, ASSOCIATIONS and CONTACTS
 May  I  wish  you  an  expectant  Advent,  and  when  it  comes,    a  Very  Happy
 Christmas.
