We've been waiting so long for you to come this season, Jesus. How exciting to light the Jesus candle on our advent wreath. Thank you for robbing our sin and making us holy.
Welcome to Our World
by Michael W. Smith
Tears are falling, hearts are breaking
How we need to hear from God
You've been promised, we've been waiting
Welcome holy child
Welcome holy child
Hope that you don't mind our manger
How I wish we would have known
But long awaited holy stranger
Make yourself at home
Please make yourself at home
Bring your peace into our violence
Bid our hungry souls be filled
World now breaking heavens silence
Welcome to our world
Welcome to our world
Fragile finger sent to heal us
Tender brow prepared for thorn
Tiny heart whose blood will save us
Unto us is born
Unto us is born
So wrap our injured flesh around you
Breathe our air and walk our sod
Rob our sin and make us holy
Perfect son of god
Perfect son of god
Welcome to our world
We have enjoyed a day of peace: playing games, reading, eating, snuggling, worshipping.
One of our crafts this Christmas season was making orange pomanders. Olivia makes them more easily if we pre-poke the holes with toothpicks before she inserts the cloves.
The dining room smells so good!
Now we're looking forward to travelling alongside the wise men as they search for baby Jesus.
