AOC Sunday Report - Second Sunday in Advent

  

Happy Second Sunday in Advent!

The AOC Sunday Report can be downloaded RIGHT HERE!

We have excellent sermons today from Bishops Jerry, Roy, Igor and Jack, as well as rev Bryan.  Each is different in each is very very good today. I think that you will enjoy them. Bishop Jack brings the propers together today.  His sermon can be viewed on video HERE -> https://youtu.be/yxuecSeRgCU

 The Collect, Epistle and Gospel, today’s propers are all tied together, their whole point is we are to learn from Scripture and to place our hope and trust in God, not man.  If we have hope and trust in God, we must dread naught, and carry on, empowered through them in our daily lives here on Earth until we are called to our heavenly home.   These are actions we must take; not mere thoughts or words, actual actions! God provided Scripture so we might learn from the history of old believers in the Old and New Testament. As the saying goes, if we do not learn from history we are doomed to repeat it. It is the same with Scripture; for much of Scripture is history. I hope you find it useful.


There are always a lot of people who need your prayer, today is no exception!  Please start with Tricia, Ditte, Mr. Kim, Shamu and Laurie, work out from there.


There's a tremendous amount to think of as we approach Christmas and recall the first coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If you have a hard time understanding how it is God could send His only begotten son to the end of all that believe on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life, perhaps you might consider opening your heart to the Holy Ghost and see what you can find.


Godspeed,


Bishop Hap
