Advent I

It's the beginning of a new year -- The First Sunday in Advent. And I was so glad to be home for that, and to read the "wake up" Epistle. Laughing at Claire's remark that I was probably the only one there who could read the "chambering and wantonness" part; I don't think so.

Preparing for the last trip of the year I see I'll not be far away from one of our churches, in Bolingbrooke IL, but I think my conference's meetings run late Wednesday evening so I probably won't be able to attend their service.
