Some of our best memories of Christmas involve singing some of our favorite songs and carols. Whether they’re secular or sacred, they remind us of the reason for the season and the sheer joy that’s possible during this very special time of year. And so, with that in mind, we’re going to spend some time talking about the "Great Songs of Christmas” but not necessarily the ones we associate with this holiday. Instead, we’ll look at some of the advent songs from the Bible, passages that had meaning then and can have meaning right now. During four weeks, we’ll consider the following:
- December 1 - The Song of Zechariah: A Song of Praise
- December 8 - The Song of Mary: A Song of Trust
- December 22 - The Song of the Angels: A Song of Joy
- December 29 - The Song of Simeon: A Song of Hope
During the service on Sunday, December 22, we'll use Luke 2:8-20 to better understand the song of the Angels: a song of joy. Below is the bulletin for the service. You can stream the service by going to the Sligo Presbyterian Church YouTube Channel on Sundays at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). You can hear a podcast of the service at the Sligo Presbyterian Church YouTube Channel or the Sligo Presbyterian Spotify Page.
