Mary's Song

Do you listen to the music in the stores and malls? Holiday music – yes, but often maybe even rarely Christmas music. Songs about the weather and songs about Santa and the North Pole but with an increasingly secular society where are the Christmas carols? Sunday begins a series looking at the original songs lifted up by the earliest participants of the first Christmas – Mary, Zechariah, the Angels and Simeon. Mary's Song is a beautiful look at the bridge from the promises of God to the astonishing fulfillment of the Incarnation. The prophets promising a Redeemer and then the baby born as Emmanuel – it is enough for even the coarsest voice to break out in song! Join us for all four songs sung by the various characters of Luke. You will be impressed, Mary so very young and reeling with the news from Gabriel still exhibits great faith, great trust and great wonder at God's promises – we should do no less!
