Bringing the message - Rev. Shawna Darnall

The last candle burns
The waiting's almost over
Soon we'll hear a baby crying
and we'll know that God is no mere idea
Soon we'll feel what Mary feels
with the baby in her arms
And we'll know we've met God in person
A person among us, weak and wanting,
wise and growing
Soon we'll know
what is divine about being human
and human about being divine
One candle burning
One star shining in the night sky
One child lying in a manger's straw
One God, among us, Emmanuel!
by Jim Burklo
Your Saint Mark staff wishes
you and yours
a holy and blessed Christmas!
