oin us for our Advent Course this year at All Saints – we are sharing in this with our friends at St Andrew’s, Milngavie.
The course will be held on Thursday afternoons November 23rd and 30th and December 7th and 14th in All Saints church choir vestry at 3.00pm.
We are using Paula Gooder’s Advent book The Meaning is in the Waiting as the basis of our course.
Paula Gooder provides a profoundly biblical guide to the season of Advent and we explore its central theme of waiting in the company of the biblical characters who feature prominently in the lectionary readings for the season: Abraham and Sarah who waited for a child, Isaiah and the prophets who waited for judgement and redemption, John the Baptist whose role was to wait in the wilderness until the prophecies he foretold were realised, Mary whose waiting began in pregnancy and continued as she stood at the foot of the cross.
This offers an exquisite meditation on the spirituality of waiting – the active doing of nothing – as a way of enhancing our lives and bringing us closer to God.
This Sunday (November 12th) is Remembrance Sunday and All Saints will join other churches and organisations in a service outside at 10.40am for about half an hour.
In church there will be sheets for the use of people who prefer not to stand outside but still want to be a part of the remembering and there will be appropriate organ music played, then we will return from the outdoor community service and continue in church with the second half of Communion.
We have decided to livestream from church as usual, so Zoom will show a somewhat static church scene with the organ playing at the usual time then things will continue as usual when we return.
The sheet is available by clicking the link at the bottom and for Zoom log in details please contact andrew.long200@ntlworld.com or dguest@glasgow.anglican.org
The AGM of the church will be held on Sunday 29th October after the 10.30am service.
