"prepare the way" is a great opener...effective @ drawing people in. <BR/><BR/>in response to your question, by subtle, i mean very subtle:) we really didn't do anything else with the advent candle idea...we just wanted a way to still have the element of the candles incorporated in worship (we have a large group of "previously catholic" that respond well to that type of liturgy or tradition...we wanted to observe the advent season, but in a fresh way i guess:)<BR/><BR/>have a great week!Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18401560602803652144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32904290.post-12962839175282521402008-12-15T07:48:00.000-06:002008-12-15T07:48:00.000-06:00hey jim. thanks for stopping by!looks like you gu...hey jim. thanks for stopping by!<BR/><BR/>looks like you guys did a few Christmas carols...we only did one yesterday, but I think we'll do two or three this coming Sunday.Matt MacDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08950192324791213406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32904290.post-38602675855875867362008-12-15T04:53:00.000-06:002008-12-15T04:53:00.000-06:00I hear you on the 'down' congregation.

And Christmas in our town this year is hard for many. There have been much lower catches of chokka (calamari) and many fishermen have been laid off. It's caused a lot of unhappiness and disruption, understandably.<BR/><BR/>Blessed Be Your Name is a brilliant song to include for times like these. And I love Come and See. The gentleness of it will woo folks who are struggling.
