Advent Mission 2023: Advent of Grace by Fr. Stephen Pellessier
Grace and peace to you. I'm Rev. Joe Cailles, the pastor of Peakland United Methodist Church in Lynchburg Virginia. Today is Wednesday, November 15, 2023 Halloween ended a few weeks ago, and Thanksgiving Day in the US is next week. But I've noticed that most of the grocery stores and big box stores have had their Christmas goods out for display for awhile now. Including my current favorite snack, Little Debbie Christmas tree cakes, which a church member brought to me last week. So tasty! Peakland is not far behind, we have been planning our advent and Christmas seasons for weeks, and we've been unveiling in worship for a couple of weeks all the good that we want to do. We have wrapped up our discussion of Being a United Methodist Christian this week and beginning in December we're going to be reading and considering this book, All the Good, a Wesleyan Way of Christmas. We'll have in person discussions at the church and around the table at Ihop. I'll talk about this book in these Wednesday videos, and we'll consider All the Good on Sunday mornings in December too. This Advent season we'll have some wonderful worship services. Peakland's United music worship service will be at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, December 17 in the sanctuary. There will be singing and ringing and lots of lovely music. This year, Sunday December 24th is both the fourth Sunday of Advent and Christmas Eve. So on Sunday December 24, we at Peakland will have a united 4th Sunday in advent worship service at 10:00 a.m. in the sanctuary and then we'll have two Christmas Eve worship services Sunday evening. Our Christmas Eve family worship service will be at 4:00 p.m. and our traditional candlelight and communion worship service will be at 7:00 p.m. that evening both in the sanctuary. This season we will nurture our faith, we'll worship together, and we will serve our community together. Peakland's fourth annual advent mission fest will be Sunday, December 3 from 4-5:30 in the fellowship hall. We've asked five of the helping agencies here in town to give us their Christmas wish list. UMFS needs gift cards to gas stations and box stores so that the foster families they sponsor can get what they need. Chase the chill needs knitted hats and scarves and mittens to distribute. The Salvation Army has these stockings that need filling, and Parkview and Daily Bread need canned and boxed goods just like these. Bring these items to the mission fest on Sunday, December 3 from 4-5:30 and then stick around for cookies, hot chocolate, ornament making, singing, and lighting our fantastic outdoor Christmas tree. All of the details for all of these ministries are already on our church's website. PeaklandUMC.org, and we have multicolored handouts for you here in church on Sunday morning, and we'll keep sending out email reminders. Peakland is an active, caring, generous congregation, but all the good we do for ourselves and for those around us is in response to the grace and love that our One Trinity God has done for us. That makes this season all the more meaningful for me and for all of us at Peakland. This December we will have folks join and become members of the Peakland United Methodist Church family. If you'd like to become part of our church family or learn more about our ministries and the ways you can do all the good that you can, then reach out to me at PeaklandPastor@gmail.com Thanks be to God

E4: Applying Jesus to Hard Conversations - Community, Competency & Crisis Bias Today's episode finds Amy visiting with a good friend and fellow author, Rev. Omar Al-Rikabi, discussing 3 new biases in the only way they can - through lots and lots of conversation!. The definitions of these biases will be explored and can be found in more detail in Brian McLaren's book Why Don't They Get It? and can be found on his website: https://brianmclaren.net/. About Omar Omar's speciality is telling stories, which he does in his two published works: The Advent Mission and Between You and Me. You can find both of those resources at www.seedbed.com. When not telling stories, Omar likes to watch movies with his wife Jennifer, read books with his three daughters, and work in the kitchen cooking and grilling for family and friends. You follow him on Twitter and Instagram at @omarrikabi or visit his blog omarrikabi.com. His latest project, a new podcast, will be launching in 2022 so stay tuned for that! He also has a major obsession with space, Star Wars and all the wonders of the Heaven. Find him @omarrikabi everywhere! Scripture mentioned is John 9:1-25 from the Message Translation. Applying Jesus is hosted and produced by Amy Vogel, Director of Spiritual Growth for Upper Room Heights and our Technical Director is Xach Blunt. We record at the Chapelwood UMC Digital Studio in Houston, TX. We hope something you heard today deepened your faith, opened your eyes and led you to not only knowing God in a more expansive way, but shifts how you connect, especially with those who are easy to overlook.

In our final night of the Advent Mission, we continued to delve into the wisdom of the saints, who are great spiritual masters of the interior life. We will pick up our study of The Fulfillment of All Desire again in Lent; we hope you will join us! Among many rich topics, in night four Ralph looks at a principle of the Christian life rooted in Acts 14:22 - “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.” No one escapes suffering; we are all called to take up our cross and follow Christ. We all have to choose between the cross of Christ and the cross of Satan.
Last night was night three of the Advent Mission. It was a joy to continue our Advent journey and to look closely at the challenges we can face on the path to holiness, particularly the dangers of sin.
