Thought for the Week:

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.”
Desmond Tutu

Candle of Peace:

“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”
Ephesians 4:32

Special Music Note:

“As the Dark Awaits the Dawn” reflects Isaiah’s prophecy in chapter 9 of light breaking into darkness and hope rising for those who “walked in darkness.” Its imagery of dawn and radiant peace mirrors the coming of Christ, the “Prince of Peace,” whose birth dispels fear and brings renewal. Each verse echoes the scripture’s promise that God’s light will shine through us, filling the world with joy, justice, and grace.
