The Angels and The Shepherds

December 8, 2024 · Luke 2:8-20

Rev. Rhea Bullock

Pastor

Shepherding God, thank you for feeding your flock with love, gathering us lambs in your arms and carrying us close to your heart.

Welcome to Sunday Morning Worship @ First United Methodist Church-Kaufman this the Second Sunday of Advent. Children of God, we continue to prepare our hearts for the coming Messiah.

Pastor Rhea shares his message “Reliable Witnesses: The Angels and The Shepherds” as taken from Luke 2:8-20.

Let us join together as one body and sing praises with one voice for His glory.

“Come to Us”
“Angels We Have Heard on High”
“What Child Is This”
Special Music “Angel Medley” performed by The Joyful Ringers
“Angels From the Realms of Glory”
“Emmanuel, Emmanuel”

As you go out into the wonder of God’s creations, let love live in your heart and share the love of Christ with all you meet. “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.” (1 John 4:7)

We hope you have enjoyed this time of Praise and Worship for our ever present, loving God. Our prayer is that you have received God’s blessing today.
